Province of Gallura North-East Sardinia

The province spans 3,550 square kilometers of territory, featuring a granite-rich landscape with coastal fiords and the Monte Limbara peak reaching 1,362 meters.

The region transformed from ancient Phoenician settlements through Roman control in 238 BC to medieval autonomous states called Judicates with Civita as capital.

The local language combines Sardinian and Corsican influences, reflecting centuries of migration patterns and maritime connections between the two Mediterranean islands.

Two administrative capitals, Olbia and Tempio Pausania, serve the province with Olbia-Costa Smeralda Airport providing international transportation links.

The territory contains 300 sunny days annually and maintains strong economic sectors in cork production, wine making, and sheep breeding alongside tourism.
