Description

Ports of Puglia in Salento: Santa Maria di Leuca

Historically a crossroads of the Mediterranean, the “seaport” rises along the Salento coast, among the most beautiful in the entire Apulia region, in the inlet between Punta Ristola and Punta Meliso, a point of union between the Ionian and Adriatic Seas.

The ports consists of a three-armed breakwater, which has a perpendicular panel 200 meters from the head, and an internally docked breakwater.
The piers serve as protection to the basin.
The landing’s floating docks are located in the northern part, at the shore dock (132 meters long), while at the far end of the port are fishing boats as well as some pleasure craft at the buoys.
There are moorings reserved for boats in transit, either at the buoys operated by the sailing club or at the jetties located to the left of the harbor entrance.

The areas reserved for boaters are managed, for the most part, by the company Porto Turistico Marina di Leuca Spa and partly by the Italian Naval League and theMaritime Authority.

Water and electricity are available at the moorings.
Engine and fiberglass hull repair services, electrical repairs, outdoor boat storage available.
Fuel station is located along the east dock.

Port access

Prior to entering the ports, it is necessary to apply for permission and berth assignment via VHF channel 12.
The maximum speed allowed is 2 knots.

Nearby coves and caves to visit by boat

All along the coastal area surrounding the harbor are beautiful natural caves carved out by time and storm surges, as well as man-made subterranean hollows that can only be reached by boat, in dinghies by sea.

  • Porcinara Cave (also called Portinaia Cave that can be reached not only by sea, but also from the road).
    A cave 15 meters high and twice as deep.
  • Devil’s Cave.
  • River Cave.
  • Crib Cave.
  • Cave Three Ports.
  • Cave of the Child.
  • Cave of the Giants.
  • Caves of the Stable and the Dragon.

The anchorages of Punta Ristola and Punta Meliso provide good anchorages in case of Tramontana and Grecale.

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.
