Description

Located in the southern part of the long promontory of Hyères, the Anchorages de la Badine is a popular area for boaters sailing along the Côte d’Azur

The most suitable area for anchoring is the southern one (near the promontory of Giens), which is well protected from southerly, westerly winds and which also offers a fair amount of shelter from the mistral (in case the wind does not blow too hard). The only danger is the fact that the bay is completely open to the east and, also considering that the seabed tightness is good but not exceptional, in case of easterly currents it is good not to stop here.

As in many other areas of the department, the Var administration has established, at the southern part of the plage de la Badine, a small organized mooring area that can accommodate up to 15 boats.
The plage de la Badine borders the plage de la Bergerie to the north and extends to the promontory of Giens. It is a long, wide expanse of sand, surrounded by beautiful patches of greenery and pine forests that provide nice shade for bathers.

The area is unsupervised, but its proximity to the road, shallow water, and spaciousness make it a popular destination for families, including those with young children.
Free parking can also be found in the area.
A number of eateries are located along the beach, and water sports enthusiasts can find a dedicated windsurfing area here and a channel for those who want to practice water skiing.

From the beach there is a beautiful view of Pointe de la Badine and Porquerolles Island.

Leaving the plage de la Badine and continuing toward the tip of the Giens promontory, one encounters a series of small coves with very quiet little beaches.
Two other beautiful beaches are found along the coast that leads from the plage de la Badine toward the Pointe de La Badine. The first is the plage de l’Estanci, easily accessible from the mainland, little known and very wild. The second is the plage de la Baume, the closest to the Pointe de la Badine, offers nice shade thanks to its pine forests.

La Anchorages de la Badine is the ideal mooring place to enjoy the beauty of the Hyères area in a very airy space.

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.
