Description

Punta Pizzo Bay, is one of the anchorages of the Ionian coast halfway between Gallipoli and Marina di Mancaversa. This anchorage offers an unspoiled landscape thanks to its location within the Sant’Andrea Island Nature Reserve established in 2006 with almost 700 hectares of those 20 km of Gallipoli’s Ionian coastline.

The low, rocky coastline is interspersed with enchanting coves of fine sand, bathed by clear blue waters of an opalescent hue perfectly in keeping with the distinctiveness of the surrounding area. The origin of this crystal-clear hue is due to the predominantly rocky coastline whose bottoms are not veiled by sand.

The low cliff is surrounded by a thick pine forest that includes all the typical plant species of the Mediterranean maquis and Aleppo pine forests. This entire area is, in fact, included in the Punta Pizzo Park. In addition to the sight, the sense of smell will also be enhanced by the typical smells of the place due to the presence of arbutus, myrtle, orchids, marigolds and daisies.

The whole area, it is evident, thanks to its naturalistic interest has always attracted all kinds of visits that explain the presence of an ancient Bourbon garrison built to defend the Salento coast from enemy attacks.

The beach of the same name, which is almost 2 km long, is characterized by lonely coves, discos for keeping the small hours, small restaurants with good local cuisine and various types of services for the needs of all kinds of visitors. The beaches still retain their intact charm that benefits from the reserved location giving moments of pure relaxation thanks to a wonderful sea with crystal clear water, especially in the vicinity of the rocky shoreline, where it reaches an extraordinary transparency.

Punta Pizzo, like the entire Gallipoli coastline, is a favorite vacation destination in Salento thanks to its sweeping landscapes and a great wild charm determined by the numerous natural aromatic pine forests rich in tree essences such as rosemary, thyme, broom and lentisk.

However, this bay has something extra that continually attracts tourists: the location in the Park, the scent of the adjoining vegetation, the greenery and the view really offer a feeling of well-being. In addition, the fantastic sea, the small and wild beach, and the unique and inimitable shoreline give the feeling of being in the Maldives.

Always considered one of the symbolic places of the Salento, Apulian, Mediterranean and European identity recognized by the international scientific community, this anchorage is at risk because of a great tourism- real estate speculation.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! yachtdigest.com is in fact the largest online portal on recreational boating and in this section you will be able to write your ad for free if you want to sell your boat. Adding a new sales message is very simple and intuitive as is finding a boat you are interested in buying, but to make your listing even more appealing, we want to give you some general but important pointers that you can follow if you wish.

First of all, try to personalize your ad, describing the history of the boat and perhaps the reason why you are selling it, this way you will gain more trust from the reader.

You can call it “half-new” if it is almost new, or “used” by specifying whether or not it is in good condition. It indicates the condition of the engines, the year of registration, how many owners it has had-most importantly, it indicates whether the boat has been owned by a single owner: it increases interest to those reading the ad.

The goodness of your craft must shine through in your message, because before you can convince someone, you yourself must be convinced that the product is good.

It is important that no spelling errors are made in the advertisement, so reread the message well before putting it online. The language then must be clear and simple, understandable to all.

It serves to attract interest and induce the reader to continue reading; it is the most important part and should summarize in one line the whole message we want to give. Unfortunately, you don’t have much chance to stand out much except with something really original to attract attention. So focus on truly original details of the boat, its real qualities: in the yachtdigest.com portal this brief summary will appear by hovering over the picture of the boat with the mouse.

It is important to clearly include the general record of the vessel. Always enter: shipyard, model, length, width, draft, engines, number of cabins, year of construction, price.

In the boat sheet accurately enter all boat details, standard and extra equipment. It is useful to communicate many details and details for those who are really interested and will continue reading beyond the first few lines.

Suggest to the reader who wants to buy the best features of your craft, and do not indicate-unless it is necessary to inform the buyer in advance-information that might negatively influence the reader.

Always indicate the price. Unless you absolutely do not want to deal, we recommend adding the words “price negotiable” which gives an incentive for the buyer to contact you.
