About location

Lungoni sits on the Strait of Bonifacio in northern Sardinia, Italy, where granite headlands and low Mediterranean maquis meet a deeply indented coast. The name Lungoni belongs to the Gallurese language; the settlement is better known today as Santa Teresa Gallura. Its modern town was founded in 1808 by King Victor Emmanuel I of Sardinia and named for his wife, Maria Teresa of Austria-Este. To the west, Capo Testa is a granite promontory joined to Sardinia by a narrow isthmus, while the waterfront faces the sea passage between Sardinia and Corsica. Beaches and small coves give this corner of Gallura a distinctly maritime character, alongside whitewashed homes, boat activity and coastal scrub.

City Lungoni

Lungoni occupies Sardinia’s shore of the Strait of Bonifacio in the island’s far north, and this sea-facing position has long connected it with Corsica. Better known in Italian as Santa Teresa Gallura, the town is a departure point for ferries crossing to Bonifacio. The granite headland above the harbour is crowned by the Torre di Longonsardo, a coastal watchtower linked to Sardinia’s Spanish-era defences. Rena Bianca beach lies beside the centre, while Capo Testa’s weathered granite formations extend west of town.

Sardinia
Region Sardinia

Sardinia combines a rugged mountainous interior with far-reaching coasts in a way that reflects its position within the western Mediterranean. Near these central coordinates, granite uplands, grazing land and small settlements shape an island interior where local traditions remain part of daily life. The Gennargentu range is Sardinia’s highest mountain area, while the Tirso, the island’s longest river, runs west across its interior. Sardinia is also the land of the Nuragic civilisation: thousands of prehistoric stone nuraghi still punctuate the countryside.

Country Italy

Among the countries of southern Europe, Italy stands out for its Mediterranean coastline and cities marked by the legacy of ancient Rome. The Alps form its northern frontier, while the Apennines run down the peninsula and the Po crosses the broad plain of the north. Rome’s Colosseum and Roman Forum recall the ancient empire; Florence is closely associated with the Renaissance, and Venice is built across a lagoon on the Adriatic. Food changes markedly between regions, from olive-oil cooking in the south to rice dishes in the Po Valley. Sicily and Sardinia add distinct island identities to a country whose regions retain strong local character.
