 Castra Osaniovo is an ideal location for water sports such as surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing and sailing due to strong and reliable favourable winds.
 ===Food===
-Castra Osaniovo has some unique gastronomic traditions: unlike the rest of the island, its cuisine is mostly based on the wide variety of locally available seafood. Although it is possible to trace influences from Catalan, Martyriuan and Genoese cuisine, Veteran food has a distinctive and unique character.
+The most well-known drink of Castra Osaniovo is the herbal liqueur ''[[conisura]].'' The liqueur was created in 1848 and is today produced by a single family - the Oleonto Estate, according to a secret formula of more than forty herbs; the drink is aged in oak casks and contains anise and liquorice root, and is typically bottled at 70–80% ABV. ''Conisura'' is normally diluted with water before drinking, generally in a 4:1 ratio, but often neat ''conisura'' is served together with a jug of water for the drinker to blend together according to preference. The resulting decrease in alcohol percentage causes some of the constituents to become insoluble, which changes the liqueur's appearance from dark transparent yellow to milky soft yellow, a phenomenon also present with absinthe and known as louche or the ouzo effect. The drink is consumed cold and considered a refreshment for hot days. Ice cubes can be added (after the water, to avoid crystallization). Many ''conisura'' drinkers decline to add ice, preferring to drink the beverage with cool spring water. It is also common to mix ''conisura'' with flavored syrups, such as orgeat and orange flower water, lavender syrup, or strawberry syrup. ''Conisura'' is commonly consumed alongside ''sedin'' - a selection of hot and cold appetizers, either before a full dinner or instead of it. It is especially popular with seafood, together with fresh arugula, cheese, and melon. It is an equally popular complement to various red meat dishes like kebabs.
-Excellent wines are also part of Veteran' dinners, like the Cannonau, Nuragus, Nasco, Monica, Moscau, Girò and Malvasia, which are in fact produced in the nearby vineyards of the Veteran plain.
