Rena Bianca: the beach of Santa Teresa Gallura

Rena Bianca is the signature beach of Santa Teresa Gallura and one of the best-known town beaches in northern Sardinia. The cove is famous for fine pale sand, shallow clear water and subtle pinkish tones along parts of the shoreline.

A well-managed beach

Rena Bianca has repeatedly received Blue Flag recognition for environmental management, water quality and services. Its central location makes it easy to access, with seasonal facilities and services available nearby.

A postcard setting

Rena Bianca lies beneath the historic centre of Santa Teresa Gallura and is framed by granite, Mediterranean vegetation and the Longonsardo tower area. The sea changes from turquoise to deeper blue depending on light and weather, while the sheltered setting often creates inviting swimming conditions.

More to see around Santa Teresa Gallura

Beyond Rena Bianca, the Santa Teresa Gallura area offers a wide variety of coastal landscapes. Capo Testa and Valle della Luna lie to the west, while beaches such as La Marmorata, Santa Reparata and Rena Majore provide alternatives along nearby stretches of coast.

Rather than trying to see all of them in one day, it is better to choose one area and combine it with the town or Capo Testa.
