The large commercial port of Porto Torres is situated on the N coast of the island of Sardinia, 15 miles WSW of Castelsardo and 10 miles SE of the small harbour of Stintino.

A man-made harbour dating back to Roman times, Porto Torres was once the most important port in Sardinia after Cagliari.

Today it is a major centre for production of chemicals and an important transport hub for ferries to the S of France and Spain. The industrial harbour is unsuitable for yachts, but the smaller, commercial harbour on the E, where the ferries berth, contains two small basins at its SE end which have been converted into marinas.
