In 1808, Viktor Emanuel I, the former king of Sardinia-Piemonte, founded Santa Teresa di Gallura and named the city after his Austrian wife Maria Theresa of Austria-Este. But the region of Santa Teresa has been inhabited since prehistoric times: the first traces can be traced back to the nuraghi, which, among other things, the gigantic tombs of Lu Branali left here. Romans used the granite rocks on nearby Capo Testa as a quarry, and the last of the 1970s hippies still live in caves and among granite blocks in the legendary Valle della Luna.
In Santa Teresa you are very close to Corsica: only 12 km of the sea separates the two Mediterranean islands; Ferries from Santa Teresa commute several times a day to Bonifacio, whose white chalk cliffs shine against the high, forested mountains of southern Corsica in clear weather. You don't need a car for a day trip to Bonifacio, the fortified town at the southernmost point of France is within walking distance of the harbor. It is more comfortable with the inflatable boat: and then you can also visit the Corsican islands of the Lavezzi archipelago easy to visit .
