The territory of Platamona, part of the municipality of Sassari, is immersed in a rich cultural tradition rooted in the history of north-western Sardinia. A few kilometres from the beach is the historic centre of Sassari, with its noble palaces, centuries-old churches, and museums that tell centuries of island art and civilisation.
The folk festivals, such as la Faradda di li Candareri, recognised as UNESCO heritage, or the celebrations for San Gavino in Porto Torres, enliven the area with processions, music, and traditional costumes. Local crafts and typical cuisine – from roast porceddu to fregula with clams – complete the authentic experience of those who choose Platamona not only for the sea but also to discover the cultural soul of its land.
