Description

The anchorages of Capo Malfatano are located in one of the most beautiful and evocative areas of southern Sardinia, in the municipality of Teulada in the province of Cagliari. In this part of the island the coastline is very rugged and changeable, alternating rocky headlands overhanging the sea with enchanting coves of white sand.

In the territory of Teulada there are several bays sheltered from the winds including Capo Malfatano, which owes its name to the promontory of the same name. The promontory is overlooked by an ancient Spanish tower, from which there is a spectacular view, and forms a kind of sea basin with a long beach of white sand and amber-colored pebbles.

The stretch of sea between these rocks is uniquely beautiful, transparent, crystal clear, and not particularly cold. The seabed alternates between sand, pebbles and posidonia, and by boat you can enter the bay up to the middle, because after that it is too shallow.

In the background of this fjord are archaeological relics, and the changeability of the pristine sea makes it a true paradise for snorkelers. A short distance from the beach is Tuerredda Island and in the distance the stacks of Capo Spartivento.

The beach of Capo Malfatano is part of a very ancient bay, dating back to the 6th century B.C. and formerly the site of an ancient Punic ports of which it is still possible to admire the remains on the seabed a few meters deep near the coast.

On the western side are the coves of Punta Tonnara, which can also be reached on foot via a dirt road downhill. The anchorage is very sheltered from the winds and the sea is almost always calm; there is a pier that allows you to switch sides and offers hauling for small boats.

The west shore of the beach is occupied by a café bar and restaurant offering menus of fresh fish caught on the day. Cape Malfatano is also well known because huge sea groupers can be caught there and it is the site of numerous international fishing championships.

The anchorage is one of the most beautiful in Sardinia; it is located in an area dotted with enchanting views and is therefore very popular with pleasure boaters. The beach is in the middle of the two famous beaches of Tuerredda and Piscinnì and is very popular in summer, partly because it can be reached by land, although the road is rather uncomfortable and unpaved.

Do you need to sell your boat? You are in the right place! Tuttobarche.it 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 Tuttobarche.it 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.
