Description

Orebic is a seaside resort at the foot of Mount Sant’Elia. In the harbor, there are berths for passing boats on the inner side of the breakwater, equipped with mooring buoys, water, and electricity for boats up to 12 meters in length and with a maximum draft of 2 meters. TThe tops of the mooring buoys protrude above the water, and there is a risk of getting snagged. A green light at the head of the Marina pier marks the approach. Orebic is connected to the town of Korčula by regular ferry service.

The Mistral and the Sirocco in the strait where Orebic is located increase in strength by at least 2 Beaufort due to the “Venturi tube” effect. With the Bora, there can be sudden and dangerous gusts, especially in the eastern part. Current speed: 0.5–1 knot (2 knots in strong winds).

Orebic is the main tourist and commercial center of the peninsula of Peljesac (Sabbioncello).

The town is now largely a tourist destination; few people are still sailors or farmers. Many of the houses in the old village have been renovated in recent decades and have lost their original appearance. High above Orebic, there is an old cemetery, a 15th-century church, and a Franciscan monastery which was built next to the church. From the church, there is a wonderful view of the islands of Mljet and Korčula, the Pelješac Peninsula, and the open sea. Places to visit are also the Maritime Museum the Captain’s House and the Rector’s Palace.

Orebic has many long sandy beaches and many bays with crystal clear sea, among which the most famous is that of Trstenica. Between Orebić and Kucisce, you can find many surfers in the summer. The area around Orebić is ideal for walks and hikes.

In Orebic’s restaurants, you can sample oysters and mussels from local farms, and if you want to cool off on hot days, you can visit the town’s many taverns and bars. Orebic is famous for its red wines ( Dingač, Postup, and Peljesac), and the many local wineries offer the chance to taste them right there.

The peninsula of Peljesac , 65 km long and 6 km wide, features a very varied landscape with forests, beaches, rocks, coves, and gulfs. Much of the peninsula is covered with vineyards and olive groves, as well as fruit trees including fig, almond, orange, and pomegranate trees. Numerous small islands are scattered around the peninsula.

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.
