Local Tourism System "Eleonora d'Arborea" - Oristano
The S.T.L. Local Tourism System of Central Western Sardinia “Eleonora D’Arborea”.
Was established in December 2005 through the gathering of public and private operators with the aim to develop a strong relationship to reinforce the local offer and to create an integrated touristic network able to speed up new productive and strategic methodologies through “district” dynamics. These same dynamics have lead Italy’s productive system to be competitive in the international scenario.
The territory in which the system operates coincides almost fully with the borders of the Province of Oristano and it is characterized by widespread cultural deposits, a high environmental and landscape quality, valuable historical and archaeological sites, traditions linked to artistic handicrafts, to gastronomy and above all to the great sense of hospitality that characterizes its inhabitants.
The sea, the hills, the mountains and the Tirso and Temo rivers (the only navigable river in Sardinia) are the wonders of our territory. The weather, typically Mediterranean, assures a mild temperature all year long and allows the presence of a vegetation based on olive and citrus trees, vineyards, rice, artichokes, etc.
Whoever likes sports has an embarrassingly wide choice. Sportsmen can choose among a great variety of activities, favoured by the mildness of the weather, like sailing, canoeing and fishing in the lake of Omodeo, in the rivers and in the sea; tennis, horse-riding in Arborea and in many other riding schools that are present in the Province (Oristano is called the land of the horse); windsurfing along the coast and surfing at Capo Mannu; golf, in the new structure of Is Arenas, situated in the North of the peninsula of Sinis, that makes Oristano one of the most attractive place for the golf market.
