Porto Pozzo
Porto Pozzo is a quietly charming seaside hamlet tucked into a sheltered bay about 12 km from Santa Teresa Gallura, surrounded by the granite-studded Gallurese landscape that defines this corner of Sardinia. The bay offers calm, protected waters with a small settlement right on shore — think local bars, basic amenities, and none of the tourist crush you'll find further along the coast. It's a solid base for exploring the Strait of Bonifacio and the nearby Maddalena Archipelago, both just a short run away. The low-key, lived-in atmosphere here is the real draw — this is northern Sardinia before it got polished up for the brochures.
