Terranoa occupies the coastal plain beside the Gulf of Olbia in northeastern Sardinia. The name recalls Terranova Pausania, the designation used for present-day Olbia until 1939; today the city is a major transport and ferry port for the island. The granite Basilica of San Simplicio, built between the 11th and 12th centuries, is Olbia’s principal Romanesque monument and stands near the historic centre. Offshore, the gulf opens towards the protected waters around Tavolara Island, while the Costa Smeralda begins farther up the coast.
