A decent number of travelers choose to make their way out to Olbia when traveling through Italy. Olbia has some nice swimming and shopping, and its most well-known attraction, the Porto Cervo, could be worth a visit. Check out this Olbia travel guide for more ideas on what to see and do, as it can be worth a stopover.
Yes, for those exploring its charms for the first time, there is the pleasure of discovering it in all its colours, while for those who had always known it simply as a port or airport to pass through, the chance to re-discover it all again, no, to live it. Olbia is, in fact, an interesting city of history and culture, fun, fashion and shopping. Monuments, museums and archaeological sites, therefore, but also the sea and beaches of extraordinary beauty with hotels, discos and restaurants which are famous and renowned at international levels
The protected marine area of Tavolara-Punta Coda Cavallo has been developed along a section of coast which is among the most beautiful and inspiring in the Mediterranean. Not far from the Costa Smeralda, it extends for almost 15,000 hectares.
Modern and luxury hotel chains, small hotels, bed & breakfast, resort hotels and residences, knowledgeably and finely furnished: many choices await you to fulfill your every need during your stay.
Olbia is an interesting city of history and culture, with numerous interesting archaeological sites and monuments.
Sea and beachesTurquoise, emerald, azure and blue, these are the colours of the waters that lap against our coast; fine white sands, a wide range of marine flora and fauna, the intoxicating scents of the Mediterranean vegetation, all of the above help to make our land a paradise.
Sardinia is not a good place for wandering by foot. There is a lot of interesting places (beaches, nuraghi, spots with nice views), but NO WAY to get to most of them by foot. You have to rent a car. If you want to see nuraghi, you have to buy specialistic map. Most of ordinary maps are not exact enough. For example, Cabu Abbas, on the map, which I got from tourist info, is in the middle of Olbia's industrial zone :) People from Olbia go to the beach to Pittulongu. It is very hard to get into last bus from Pittulongu to Olbia - it is full of people coming back to town. You had better go earlier one, if you dont want to spend money for the taxi, or admire romantic sunset on a speedlane ;)
