Its population at the 2012 census was 427. Patamacca is a tribal area inhabited by Maroons[1]

In 1773, attempts were made to conquer the Patamacca territory by the Society of Suriname, but did not yield results, and the area was left in the hands of the Maroons.[2]

The main economic activity in the Patamacca area was the palm oil industry,[3] During the 1960s[4] Template:Ill started a large-scale wood plantation in the resort.[5] There is a large granite mine in the resort which is operated by Grassalco.[6] Even though Patamacca did not bear much destruction during the Surinamese Interior War, the civil war did result in refugees, and stopped much of the industry.[4] As of 2019, attempts have been made to restart the palm oil industry with Chinese aid.[7]

The village of Ovia Olo is located in the resort.[8]
