Sant Antoni on Ebike

Objavljeno: 21.05.2024

Sant Antoni, after we were able to convince the ladies of the captaincy of the necessity of our Gustav to considerably improve the image of the port, we got a place for several days.

After a tough week at sea, we had already covered a lot more distance than we had originally planned. Even though the following day still offered good riding conditions, the first impression and the surroundings enchanted us and we wanted to use this harbor as a starting point for our e-bike tours.

Insiders are probably smiling now, we swapped our two Di Blasis for two Keteles KF9 e-bikes. The Italian reliability of our previous companions took some getting used to. We have been testing the two Chinese bikes under the toughest conditions for a few weeks now. With the battery we can travel a good 70 km on electricity with what feels like 90 kg.

First challenge: where is the nearest Lidl?

After that, we were able to quickly turn our attention to the real challenges and planned to head for Cala Tarida, which lies outside the bay. As 60 cm waves were forecast for that day, we wanted to find out what that meant for us inexperienced sailors. I'll make it short: when we arrived at the Cala, there was a lot of bathing going on there, water temperature 20°, sun, no one dared to get in the waves. We didn't really anchor in this bay with Gustav, the sandy areas were about 5*5 m or right on the beach. The holy Posidonia had spread far and wide. Even though there were always boats in other bays that were either not interested in this or had a different perspective when lowering the anchor, we still tried to avoid the vegetables.

On the way we had a coffee and a beer in a small pub for little money and then arrived safely back at Gustav.

We then got to know Sant Antoni by e-bike. Because on one of our last crossings our second to last chair gave way under what felt like my 90 kg, we needed new chairs. The Chinese one just couldn't handle it anymore. I had to bandage the last of the two provisionally.

In the Marine Shop we found two light chairs and were able to throw away the old ones.

The next day we went to Cala Salada, a lovely little bay with lots of swimming, highly recommended. For tourists on a package it's a bit of a tiring trip, the bus stops 500m from the bay with a clear final descent, the parking lot for the car is a bit better further up, with a descent for mountain goats.

Another tour took us towards the highest point on the island, Sa Talaia. We had no intention of climbing its 475 m, we just wanted to go in that direction. We were rewarded in Sant Josep de sa Talaia, a small, pretty town below the mountain. Highly recommended for relaxation.

The last round took us to Sa Figuera Borda. This time we didn't use Google's routes, but a side route. Not necessarily recommended, but we still reached our destination despite the walls and fences.

On the way back we had planned to stop off at the Magon restaurant. We ate and then packed up and prepared for departure. We can recommend the restaurant, the plates were cleared, the taste was OK, 4 out of 5 stars. The ambience was 5 out of 5 stars. The party generation will veto this.

We dedicated our last day in Sant Antoni to a tour of the bay with a cautious look out to the open sea, more about that later.
