Yacht charter
Last updated on 8 April 2025
Located 13.5 kilometers opposite the Corsican town of Bonifacio, Santa Teresa di Gallura is one of Sardinia's most famous seaside resorts. It has a marina nestled at the end of a magnificent bay, from which you can sail along the Costa Smeralda in the north of the island.
A yacht charter from Santa Teresa di Gallura will give you easy access to five exceptional beaches: Rena di Levante, Rena di Ponente, the coves of Zia Colomba, Cala Spinosa and Baia di Santa Reparata. If you feel like it, you can sail to the Maddalena archipelago, located not far away, and which impresses with the contrast offered by the blue of the sea and the emerging natural landscapes.
The town of Santa Teresa di Gallura is characterized by huge granite rocks that jut out into the sea and end at the Capo Testa lighthouse. These form a natural promontory that offers a view of the narrow passage between Sardinia and Corsica, called the Strait of Bonifacio. The sunset there is a simply magical sight. Don't miss a visit to the fishing village that surrounds the church of San Vittorio. You will be pleasantly surprised to discover the Sardinian art of living here through the gastronomy and hospitality of the inhabitants.
A journey back in time to Santa Teresa di Gallura
Magnifying the northern point of Sardinia, the village of Santa Teresa di Gallura is an invitation to an unprecedented journey to a distant past that reminds us that the north of the island has been occupied since times older than the construction of the city, in the 19th century. It is through its rural setting that one is immersed in the rhythms of yesteryear. The ancient aromas and unspoiled, spacious landscapes plunge you into the land of gods and heroes. A bucolic hike leads to ruins and vestiges, witnesses to an astonishingly rich history. There are numerous archaeological sites scattered throughout the countryside, effectively protected from the elements by the Mediterranean scrubland.
But excursions into the countryside also lead to charming agro-tourism farms. These offer you a completely different journey for your taste buds. In these agricultural establishments, you will be offered succulent dishes cooked with real local produce. You will remember names such as Porceddu or Zuppa cuata, a Sardinian soup made with stale bread hidden by melted cheese.
A cruise to the north of Sardinia
Pitch your anchor in Santa Teresa di Gallura and your stay in the north of the island will be nothing short of unique. A cruise in the sparkling waters of the Mediterranean is the best way to discover the best that this bucolic region of Sardinia has to offer. If to the west of the village thethe enormous granite rocks roll, to the east, sea excursions along the coast end in equally captivating cities, such as Palau where the joy of life can be felt in the port as well as in the city center. Here again, Sardinian gastronomy is the star of the show with pasta and toast topped with bottarga, a mixture of tuna eggs.
