Enjoy the view on the crystal clear water, go snorkeling or just let the summer sun shine on your stomach. From Olbia you can reach your dream destinations in summer quickly and comfortably.
Although a number of international and regional car hire companies offer their services at Olbia Airport, not all of them are located in the arrivals terminal or another building on the airport premises. Rather, the rental stations are also located in the city center, so when hiring a car, you should make sure that your car hire company provides a shuttle service and from where you will be picked up if necessary.

Chiesa di San Paolo Apostolo in Olbia
Would you like to go straight to the dreamlike beach sections with crystal clear water in the north of the island? Then you have made a good choice with Olbia Airport. Nevertheless, you should use the one or other day to go with your hired car to the center of Olbia, for example to visit the archaeological museum or the nearby sea museum. A walk along the Porto Rotondo is also recommended. It is also worth a diversion to the Chiesa di San Paolo Apostolo with its colorful domed ceiling. So take a little time and explore the city on your own.

It would be a pity to spend your holiday on only one beach section, because Sardinia with its five provinces has much more to offer. Take advantage of the freedom that a hired car gives you and explore the island along the coastal roads or take the S-shaped E25 motorway to reach Cagliari. You should also visit Alghero in the province of Sassari, located on the west coast, which is one of the most beautiful places in Sardinia with its Chiesa di San Michele.

In the following we have put together some more sights that you should definitely visit with a hired car:

the Castello in Bosa
the Grotte di Nettuno in the province of Sassar

Of course, you also have the possibility to take a cab to the city center to relax after your arrival.
Our tip: If you don't want to hire your hired car directly after your arrival, many car hire companies also offer the possibility to have the hired car delivered to your hotel for a fee.
