Funtanaccia Bay

Funtanaccia is a tucked-away bay on the wild granite headland of Capo Testa, where sculpted rock formations tower above crystal-clear turquoise water in a setting that feels almost prehistoric. The name hints at a freshwater spring in the area, and the surrounding landscape is classic Gallura — wind-carved boulders, low Mediterranean scrub, and that raw, untouched atmosphere you won't find at busier Sardinian spots. Capo Testa itself sits at the very northern tip of Sardinia, so you're close to the Strait of Bonifacio and just a short drive from the charming town of Santa Teresa Gallura for supplies and restaurants.
