Description
Tertenia is the most southern village of Ogliastra,
situated almost on the border of the Cagliari Province, at
the extreme limits of what used to be the medieval
Judicature of Cagliari. The village is located on the slopes
of Monte Giuilea, in a characteristic valley of
tectonic origin which, from the pass of Genna’eCrexia
stretches almost uniformly to the seashore of San Lorenzo,
delimited to the west by the high limestone-dolomitic
plateau of Taccu Mannu and Tacchixeddu , and
to east of Serramaŕ that closes the view on the
Tyrrhenian Sea to the village. |

The
territory, mainly mountainous, faces the Tyrrhenian Sea
along a 12 km coastline from Capo Sferracavallo to
the village of Barisoni. Within this strip opens, a
sort of natural amphitheatre, the gorgeous Sarrala
plain to the west of the mountain chain of Serramari,
forming a broad littoral stirred by various wine-red
promontories and the splendid dunes of the whitest and
finest sand. The long Tertenia coastline, with its rich
hinterland, must have seemed an attractive landing place to
remote sailors in search of favourable settling grounds.
