Description

The port of Cetara is located near the city of Salerno and is one of the last ports of call on the Amalfi Coast.

The port consists of a quay with a breakwater about 140 meters long and a 250-meter breakwater consisting of two arms.

The landing area is mainly occupied by the small boats of local residents and fishing vessels. From May through September, several floating docks are set up—managed by a municipal service company—and these serve as the only authorized landing area for recreational boats during the summer.
During the rest of the year, docking is permitted at the front section of the breakwater pier. A series of informational signs posted near the dock regulate the time boats may remain in the port, indicating which types of vessels are allowed to dock there.

Access to the port is facilitated by two lighthouses: a red one at the end of the breakwater pier and a green one at the top of the jetty.
Within the port area, there is also a parking lot for cars and a grocery store.
In the summer, it is difficult to find a spot inside the harbor due to the limited number of mooring berths.
In any case, it is possible to anchor behind the pier, provided that weather conditions are favorable and there is no sirocco wind. From here, you can easily reach the harbor beach with your own tender.

The beach next to the port is small and charming, and the town—with its white houses and boxy buildings—seems nestled between the sea and Mount Falerio in the background. In the summer, you can rent beach chairs, sun loungers, and umbrellas at the local beach clubs.
There are bars, restaurants, and shops in the area around the ports.

Cetara began as a small fishing village and still retains much of its original character. Its heritage as a fishing village makes it a very interesting destination to visit, even in the winter
The historic center is small and peaceful. Examples of 13th-century architecture—such as the two-arched bell tower—bear witness to the Town’s glorious medieval past.

The port of Cetara is an excellent starting point for visiting all the other towns along the Amalfi Coast. Cetara is just two miles by boat from Salerno, while Agropoli—one of the first ports of call on the Cilento Coast—is about 24 miles away.

The port is also an excellent starting point for reaching the many bays and beaches in the surrounding area, such as that of Marina di Erchie .
The seabed around Cetara will certainly delight diving enthusiasts.
In the Punta Fuenti area, at a depth of 10 metres, it is possible to admire the remains of an ancient private Roman landing place, in an excellent state of preservation.

The port of Cetara is an excellent port of call for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the Amalfi Coast without sacrificing tranquility.

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.
