Car Hire Olbia Airport

The maxim that he who stops is lost is especially true when it comes to travel in Sardinia, a region that can offer so much from a historical-cultural, gastronomic and artistic point of view that the idea of just lingering in one place is unthinkable. Once you have disembarked from the ship, why then not get a rental car from Locauto in Olbia? This is an excellent compromise for those who want to travel with all the comforts offered by a private vehicle but without having to embark their car on the ferry, with the long boarding times and significantly higher costs that this entails, and avoiding subjecting it to the wear and tear of a long journey. Rental, moreover, is an opportunity to try out vehicles that are different from those you use in everyday life: more spacious, more modern, or simply newer. The versatility of our service will allow you to choose the vehicle best suited to the needs of the group you will be traveling with, counting on the attentive assistance of a specialized company like Locauto. Among the places easily accessible from Olbia are archaeological sites of great importance such as the nuraghe, the sacred well of Sa Testa or the famous Tomba dei Giganti, a funerary monument from the Nuragic period surrounded by greenery, but also enchanting villages such as Palau and then all the extraordinary beaches of the Emerald Coast, one of the most envied in the world!

During your vacation in Sardinia are you planning to stop in Olbia or keep this city as home-base for your driving tour of the region? Then don’t miss out on all that this magical city, overlooking the northeastern gulf of the Mediterranean’s most beloved island, has to offer: starting with the historic center, full of stores and events all year round, you can visit the medieval Basilica of San Simplicio, the Art Nouveau palaces of Corso Umberto and the church of San Paolo with its dome covered in colorful majolica tiles similar to those that cover the dome of San Michele in Alghero. Olbia is also home to interesting archaeological sites such as the necropolis of San Simplicio, located under the basilica of the same name and containing hundreds of tombs from the Roman period, the sacred well Sa Testa, from the Nuragic period, several nuraghi dating back to the second millennium B.C., and a 12th-century castle from which it is possible to enjoy an unparalleled view of the Olbia plain. For those interested, on the other hand, in diving into the crystal-clear waters of the Sardinian sea, there are beaches for all tastes in Olbia or not far from it: from the red sand of the Saline to the lush green setting of Dottore beach to the shallow, crystal-clear waters of Cala Brandinchi, near San Teodoro.

With its location on the northeast coast of Sardinia, Olbia has always been the preferred arrival point for travelers arriving by ferry from the Tyrrhenian regions and interested in spending their vacations in the Costa Smeralda, traditionally considered the most prestigious area of the island. With its airport, Olbia then also represents one of the main hubs for all tourists, Italian and otherwise, arriving in Sardinia by air. In both cases, many people then decide to continue their trip to Sardinia on the road and thus resort to a car rental service at Olbia airport or at another car rental company in Sardinia: this is because the scarcity of public transport connections makes it practically impossible to cross the region by bus or train, even if one were to limit oneself solely to the beaches. In fact, the most beautiful ones are often inaccessible by public transportation, unless one wakes up at dawn and walks long kilometers before reaching the coveted cove, under a blazing sun that spares no one. The Gallura area hides numerous attractions – from the thousand-year-old olive trees of Luras to the artificial lake of Liscia, from the nuraghe of Tempio Pausania to the small villages that dot the territory, such as the beautiful Arzachena – which only the use of a safe and reliable car rental, 100% customizable, can allow you to fully enjoy. Whatever car you choose to rent with Locauto you can in fact count on a vehicle of the latest generation, extremely high performance in terms of fuel consumption and power, calibrated to your travel needs; at your disposal also a van rental service active at the airports of Olbia, Cagliari and Alghero, ideal in case you need to transport sports equipment or other very bulky objects, such as strollers for your children. Also check out Locauto’s special offers area to find the cheapest rate for you!

Olbia Airport, also known as Costa Smeralda Airport, is easily accessible from both Olbia city and the main routes to the sea: in fact, it is only 4 kilometers from the city center via State Road 127, while some of the most beautiful beaches on the east coast of Sardinia can be reached in no time at all by driving along the road that runs along the coast. The major tourist resorts on the northeastern coast, such as Golfo Aranci, Porto Cervo and Santa Teresa di Gallura, can also be reached quickly from the airport.
