Orosei
is a small and colourful town on the east coast of Sardinia. It is easily
reached by a short drive from the "Costa Smeralda International Airport"
or the port of Olbia. As you approach Orosei you will be met by an impressive
panorama: the small town nestles between two mountain plateaus and the
tyrrhenian sea, in the valley of the Cedrino River. The sandy beach
extends for about 14 km and is lined with pine trees and typically mediterranean
flora, where you can sunbathe and relax in privacy.
Further south the Golfo di Orosei expands into one of the most beautiful
rocky coastlines in the mediterranean.
Here, guided by the Dive Leaders from the Orosei
Diving Center you can explore its marvellous sea bed
and be accompanied to visit dive sites at varying depths to see fascinating
submarine flora and fauna.
The
mild climate, temperate during winter, warm and ventilated in summer,
permits diving all year long. So why not combine a diving holiday with
folkloristic events such as the procession of "Santa Maria 'e mare",
along the Cedrino river on the last Sunday in May, or the "Novenia del
Rimedio", a religious event of religious and folkloristic interest held
the first fortnight in September. Throughout the summer the local tourist
board organises festivals, concerts and exhibitions of local art. You
will be impressed by the local food and wines in the family run restaurants.
Last but not least Orosei has an attractive town centre, with historical
monuments dating back to the 13th century, old houses with hidden internal
gardens and courtyards, and
friendly inhabitants.Within a 40 km radius there are numerous other
small villages worth visiting for their folklore and local products.
The surrounding countryside also offers interesting hillside and mountain
trekking for the more adventurous travellers.
