Car rental in Olbia Airport: the best deals
Cheap car hire in Olbia Airport
Choosing car rental at Olbia Airport is a must if your trip includes the Costa Smeralda or several beaches in northern Sardinia. Distances here are not great, but public transport connections are limited. Having a rental car from Olbia Airport changes the experience from day one.
Olbia-Costa Smeralda (OLB) is one of the most used airports on the island and concentrates several airlines in the terminal. This is why many travellers prefer to pick up their rental cars at Olbia Airport as it is fast, efficient and the exit to the road is direct.
Renting a car at Olbia Airport to get around town
Renting a car at Olbia Airport makes sense because the terminal is less than 10 minutes from the city centre and very close to the first coastal areas. The town can be reached in about 10-15 minutes by road.
There are local buses and taxis, but their frequency is low outside of high season and they don't cover many remote beaches. If your accommodation is in Porto Cervo, San Teodoro or a cove in between, relying on public transport complicates daily logistics.
With a rent a car at Olbia Airport, you can head straight for the SS125 or the scenic road to the Costa Smeralda. What's more, comparing different rental cars at Olbia Airport from Pepecar allows you to choose a model suited to the type of journey you're actually going to make.

It is very easy to choose the car, everything is well explained and very fast and in 2 minutes you have the car already booked.

The car offer is good and so are the prices. What I didn't like is that it seems that the car pick up is inside the station and when you have already hired it they tell you that you have to pick it up outside in a nearby street.

Routes from Olbia Airport with your rental car
The northeast of Sardinia is not visited at a single fixed point. Each day usually involves a different beach or a different village. With car hire at Olbia Airport, you can organise a flexible route without repeating unnecessary journeys. The car becomes part of the journey, not just a means of transport.
With your vehicle you can travel to:
- Olbia (10-15 min): city centre and seafront.
- Porto Cervo (35 min): main reference point of the Costa Smeralda.
- Alghero (2 h 30 min): historic city with walls and tourist port.
- Cagliari (3 h): capital of Sardinia and cultural centre of the south of the island.
Travelling around these cities by car gives you more leeway to distribute the routes according to the real distance between points and not only according to the available timetables. With a rental car at Olbia Airport, you can plan a circular itinerary around the north of the island and optimise each journey. In addition, using a rental car at Olbia Airport allows you to connect coastal and urban destinations in the same trip without limiting yourself to a single area.
