Santa Margherita Di Pula combines wind and water sports with tangible coastal history. Spiaggia di Campumatta has exceptionally clear water. If you choose a holiday apartment in Santa Margherita Di Pula, you can tailor the focus of your stay to your specific beach and cultural interests. The beaches in the immediate vicinity alone show how differently a day by the sea can be spent.

Beaches with different characteristics

Spiaggia di Campumatta is the first beach in Santa Margherita that you reach on the SS 195 from Pula heading south. The water becomes deep quickly near the shore, and the beach offers little protection from the wind. Exceptionally clear water is also one of Spiaggia di Campumatta’s defining features. If you choose your holiday apartment according to your preferred coastal experience, access, water depth and wind conditions may play a role in planning your days at the beach.

At Spiaggia Riva dei Pini, by contrast, the water remains shallow for several dozen metres from the shore. The sea there is emerald green. Spiaggia Riva dei Pini is a beach in the immediate vicinity of Santa Margherita di Pula and therefore offers a different documented beach setting from Spiaggia di Campumatta.

Water sports on the coast

Cala d’Ostia is a regular destination for surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing enthusiasts. This focus may be of interest to you if active days on the water are part of your trip. A holiday apartment in Santa Margherita Di Pula can thus be considered according to your preferred experiences: some people focus on exceptionally clear water or shallow shoreline areas, while others are drawn to wind and water sports.

Towers, churches and ancient sites

Torre di Cala d’Ostia was built by the Piedmontese at the end of the 18th century and replaced an earlier Spanish observation post. It served to monitor the stretch of coast from the mouth of the Rio Pedras de Fogu to the two bays of Ostia against pirate attacks. Thanks to visual contact, Torre di Cala d’Ostia could transmit messages to other guard posts. The Church of Santa Margherita is the main church in this locality.
