Prices and availability for Olbia come through our partner networks, EconomyBookings and Discover Cars. Your booking completes on the partner's secure checkout.
Olbia is the gateway to north-east Sardinia, with the airport and the ferry port both a short drive from the town centre. The coast around it, from the Costa Smeralda and Porto Cervo up to Palau and the Maddalena ferries, is a string of coves reached by winding two-lane roads, and there is no useful public transport between them. Our partner network compares local and international rental companies with live prices.

Renting a car in Olbia: common questions
What kind of car suits the roads around Olbia?
A small or compact car. The coast roads are narrow and twisty, beach car parks are small and gravelly, and the lanes into the older villages were never built for anything wide. Air conditioning matters from June to September. Save the bigger car for a family with luggage, and even then think compact rather than estate.
Should I base myself in Olbia or move around?
Olbia is convenient for the airport and ferries but most visitors stay on the coast, at San Teodoro to the south or around Golfo Aranci and Palau to the north. With a car you can pick one base and day-trip the whole north-east, including the ferry to La Maddalena. Book early for July and August.
What licence do I need?
A full driving licence held for at least a year is the usual requirement, and each company sets its own minimum age and young-driver conditions. If your licence is not in the Latin alphabet, bring an International Driving Permit alongside it. The exact conditions for every car are shown before you book.
Is there a deposit, and what about insurance?
Deposit and insurance terms differ between companies in Olbia, so they are shown per car before you book. You will see what is included, what the excess is, and whether a deposit is held on your card at the desk.
Where does the booking actually happen?
You search from this page and see live cars and prices on our partner’s site. When you choose one, the booking completes on their secure checkout, where you confirm the details and receive your voucher. Show the voucher at the desk on pick-up.
