Description

Port de Sagone is located southeast of Cargese in the bay of the same name, which is protected to the north by Pointe de Triu. The harbor has a small pier with a jetty about thirty meters long on the northern shore, near the western end of the beach, where passing boats can occasionally dock. There are 160 berths available, marked by buoys. The depth inside the harbor ranges from 2 to 3 meters. The pier features a fuel pump, water and electricity hookups, a 4-metric-ton crane, and grocery stores for provisions.

The harbor offers good shelter from the mistral; when the sea is rough from the southwest, mooring becomes impossible. In that case, leave the gulf or seek shelter in Baia de Liscia. The dock is quite far from the town, which is located at the opposite end of the beach, and there are no amenities nearby. A second landing site is located on the eastern side of the beach near the town but is reserved for local fishing boats.

The tower standing to the west of the pier serves as a landmark for the approach. When approaching from the west, you must pass Pointe de Triu and Pointe Albellu while maintaining a safe distance. When approaching from the south, leave Petra Piombata, Récif de Paliagi, and Récif de St-Joseph on your right, then continue on a north-northeast course until you sight the tower and the pier. Entering the harbor at night is not recommended due to the lack of navigation lights.

The Gulf of Sagone is located in southern Corsica, between the Gulf of Ajaccio and the Gulf of Porto, on the western part of the island. Sagone, an ancient Roman town that later became a seaside resort, is now a small town with modern buildings situated right next to the beach. Remnants of its past include the Genoese tower on the northern shore, the ruins of the 12th-century Cathedral of Sant’Appiano above the river mouth, and a few menhirs. Sagone’s long beach is the town’s main attraction. Plage de Coggia, just past Sagone in the direction of Ajaccio, is very popular with surfers. Tiuccia and La Liscia feature beautiful beaches and a wide range of water sports.

Sagone’shinterland lies between the Liamone and Gravona rivers and is known for its many scattered villages, among which Sari d’Orcino, Calcatoggio and Casaglione are worth a visit, where you can buy peasant products and a few bottles of wine directly from the producers.

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.
