Description

Bounded on the west by the promontory of Cap Brun theAnse de Méjean lies within the wider Anchorages de Toulon Anchorages

The bay is well protected from westerly and northwesterly winds but is open in a southeasterly direction and offers no shelter from the winds from this direction that often affect the coast.

To preserve the area from uncontrolled anchorage, the Var department has established here (as in many other areas of the territory) an organized anchorage area that covers the central part of the anchorage and can accommodate up to 30 boats at a time. Otherwise, it is possible to anchor at the southwestern and southeastern ends of the bay.

The part of the sea closest to the shore is reserved for bathers and is marked by a row of buoys.
In the eastern part of the bay, along the small promontory that separates the bay fromAnse de Magaud, is a small port for fishing boats, which retains the charm of the fishermen’s landing places of yesteryear.

The bay’s beach consists of alternating small pebble shoals, steep rocks and sandy areas, surrounded by the blue sea and hills covered with dense maquis forest, with a few beautiful villas.

The beach offers a rescue station and a few restaurants, as well as free parking located at the west end of the bay (in the Cap Brun area) for those coming from the mainland.
Measuring 700 meters in total, it has a narrow, elongated shape and, although nearby parking makes access more convenient, it is not particularly suitable for families with small children because of its conformation and the path one must take to get to the bay.

The westernmost part of the anchorage is also home to a small agglomeration of buildings with muted colors and a picturesque appearance. Some of the fishermen’s huts there are available for rent by those who wish to spend a few days relaxing here.

L’Anse de Méjean offers its visitors a peaceful setting and a magnificent view within walking distance of Toulon, its ports and Saint-Mandrier-Sur-Mer.

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.
