Description

Cala Galdana (also known as Cala Santa Galdana) is located along the southwestern coast of the island of Menorca. It is part of the Ferrieres municipality area and is located not far from Cala Macarella and Cala Mitjaneta.

It is a large bay flanked by high cliffs and is set by an urban-type context made up of tourist and residential buildings. Thick pine forests surround it and mix with the urban agglomeration.
This stretch of coastline sees the sea outlet of two streams-the Algendar and the ‘Algendaret-which, close to the cove, have generated a marshy environment, with its typical faunal ecosystem (falcons, frogs, bats).

The entrance to the cove is about 300 meters wide, and the bottom is good tenors, composed of sand and seaweed (in the westernmost area). The bay is open to the southwest, and is therefore mainly affected by winds from this direction. It anchors with a draft of about five meters, and the best part of the bay for giving anchorage is the part located to the southeast.
On days with low winds, Cala Galdana can be an excellent anchorage point where you can spend the night.

Cala Galdana beach is located in the innermost and eastern part of the bay. It is a large beach of fine, white sand, among the best known on the island of Menorca and very popular with locals and tourists during the summer period.
The waters are clear and always fairly calm, and the slope is gentle and slowly sloping.
Beach patrons have access to toilets and showers, several bathing establishments where they can rent umbrellas and beach chairs, as well as a rescue station and a restaurant. The beach is accessible to people with mobility disabilities.

A few businesses, hotels and a car rental agency can be found within about a kilometer of Cala Galdana.

Cala Galdana is located about seven kilometers from the center of Ferrieres

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.
