And the administrative center of the province of the same name. Geographically, the city is located in the northeastern part of the island. Nearby is the airport, named after the popular resort of Costa Smeralda. This airport receives flights mainly from cities in Italy. The patron saint of Olbia is the first bishop of the city, Saint Simplicius. The official holiday in his honor is celebrated on May 15.
The history of this settlement has more than one millennium. Before our era, the area was inhabited by the Nuraghe tribe. Then the territory was conquered by the Phoenicians. They also founded the first port in Olbia. The Romans, and the Punes, and the Carthaginians, and even the Greeks visited here. The name of the city comes from the Greek word Olbiòs - "happy". However, the Sardinians themselves call it Terranova - " new earth". Thanks to the convenient geographic location, Olbia has always attracted many travelers and was one of the richest cities in Sardinia. Evidence of this are the ruins of ancient necropolises, aqueducts, Romanesque baths and other public buildings.
Today, Olbia is especially attractive for tourists due to its close proximity to the resorts of Porto Cervo and Porto Rotondo, which are part of the Costa Smeralda Emerald Coast. This coast is the most exclusive and glamorous part of Sardinia. You can get to it from Olbia in just 20-25 minutes by car. Other interesting places for tourists are 30 km from the city in San Teodoro and Budoni. These places are famous picturesque beaches and purity of nature.
The beaches of Olbia are distinguished by their unprecedented beauty. Unique rocky landscapes and sandy shores open up here. Sometimes there are beaches with coarse sand interspersed with shells. For example, Murta Maria is a popular place for surfers. Small White sand with crystal clear water can be found on Punta Corallina beach. And, of course, for lovers of luxury and luxury holiday nearby is the beach of Porto Rotondo.
The main attractions of the city include the granite church of San Simplicio, built in the 12th century, St. Paul's Cathedral, built in the 17th century, and the Archaeological Museum, revealing the secrets of the Nuraghe. From Olbia are also interesting boat trips. Here you can see the sheer, majestic cliffs of the Tavolara island, the La Maddalena archipelago, declared a National Park due to its rich flora and fauna, the island of Caprera with the house-museum of Giuseppe Garibaldi, as well as the island of Budelli with a unique pink beach.

Apart from beach holiday and sightseeing many tourists are attracted by Olbia's nightlife and wide selection of boutiques and restaurants. Perhaps the most popular places for shopping are Piazza Regina Margherita and Corso Umberto adjoining it. It is always crowded here, as in this part of the city there are cafes, restaurants and shops. The most popular dishes in Olbia are seafood and shellfish dishes. However, there are many trattorias on the streets of the city. Center nightlife also considered Piazza Regina Margherita. Here you can dance, listen to live music, and taste local cocktails.
- one of the most popular resorts Italy. This is a kind of “gateway” to the island of Sardinia, because it is here that there is a large port where ferries arrive from all over the Italian coast, and an international airport that receives direct flights from European capitals and numerous peak charters tourist season. Olbia is the administrative center of the small province of Olbia-Tempio, which is located on the northeastern tip of the island and is washed by Tyrrhenian Sea. It is, in fact, part of mediterranean sea between mainland Italy and Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily.

The local climate is very favorable for the development of the recreational industry, because from May to late autumn the sun warms up the air and water to comfortable indicators for the beach - at the peak of the season, the temperature is 28-30 ° C, and precipitation is rare and short. Fresh sea winds allow vacationers not to suffer from the exhausting heat. By the way, they also attract fans of windsurfing and classic wave riding to Olbia.
If your main goal is sightseeing travel and you want to avoid crowds, it is recommended to plan a trip for November, December or February. There are significantly fewer tourists at this time, and winters in Olbia are usually mild, the thermometer rarely drops below +6 ° C at night, +15 ° C and above is considered the norm during the day.
It goes without saying that such a wonderful piece of land in every way has attracted people since prehistoric times. For several millennia in Olbia, the mysterious Nuragic tribes replaced each other (scientists still argue even about whether they were Indo-Europeans), Phoenicians, Punas, Romans, Carthaginians, Greeks. The latter, by the way, left the modern name of the settlement as a keepsake, translated Olbios means “happy”. Evidence of a rich history are archaeological excavations at the site of ancient burials, sacred structures, aqueducts, baths and other buildings for various purposes.
What to see in Olbia and surroundings
After Rome or Florence, the historical part of the spa town is unlikely to impress you. But central square- Piazzo Regina Margherita - has retained its original medieval appearance to this day.
Among other attractions, the Church of San Simplicio is certainly mentioned, traditionally dating from the 12th century, although historians say that it began to be built as early as the 11th century. The parish is named in honor of the first bishop of Olbia and its spiritual patron, Saint Simplicius, whose memory is honored annually on May 15th. A simple and even somewhat austere granite structure has no architectural frills and, quite in the spirit of its time, resembles a military stronghold. The true purpose is given only by the bell rising to the right of the entrance. The interior is just as minimalistic as the exterior.
St. Paul's Cathedral in Olbia was built much later, in the 17th century. It is assumed that earlier on this site there was a Punic temple in honor of the son of Jupiter, Hercules. The town hall and the city library of Simplician are young compared to them, they belong to the 19th century.
If tourists are mainly interested in antiquities, then the Fausto noce park is a favorite vacation spot for the indigenous people of Olbia. Green Zone, spread over an area of 16 hectares, is the largest not only in this province, but throughout the island.
National Archaeological Museum open to visitors every day except Monday and Tuesday, and completely free. It has a rich exposition due to the ongoing excavations of ancient monuments. material culture bygone eras. By the way, research sites can also be visited. Perhaps the most interesting are the intriguing nuraghes, which have been standing without any foundation for more than a millennium, being held by the balance of the mass of huge stone blocks folded in the shape of a truncated cone. The so-called "tombs of the giants" are also impressive, for example, Su Monte de S "Abe. In Olbia, the Phoenician fortress wall and Roman baths are also available to the inquisitive eye.
The archipelago of La Maddalena, consisting of 62 large and very tiny islands, has been declared national reserve. Here, travelers have a unique opportunity to dive into the sea with scuba gear, watch the behavior of dolphins and turtles in their natural habitat. In underwater caves located at a depth of 40 meters, it is easy to see exotic fish, octopuses, moray eels, sea urchins and lobsters. There is a regular ferry service from the port of Palau to the "main" island, which takes only 20 minutes. There is also an option to hire a private carrier to get a good view of the local beauties along the way. Please note that due to its strategic location, La Maddalena hosts Italian and American military bases. To avoid misunderstandings and conflict situations, do not photograph people in uniform, their equipment and infrastructure.
If you are planning to explore other islands, do not ignore Budelli, which is far from the coast of Sardinia. Here is the world-famous Pink Beach, which got its name for the special shade of sand that coral particles give it. Unfortunately, it will not be possible to sunbathe on it today - in order to preserve unique nature the authorities were forced to deny access to tourists, but even the panorama from the board of a pleasure boat is impressive. You can soak up the gentle southern sun on the islands of Spargi, Santa Maria, Caprera. The latter is also known as the last refuge of the famous Italian revolutionary Giuseppe Garibaldi.
Passive recreation and water sports
Olbia has several modern and refined beaches at once, which are perfect for a pleasant pastime for both couples with children and groups of young people. The most popular of them is Pittulongu, which can be easily reached by public transport or a rented car (in the latter case, the guest will undoubtedly enjoy free parking). It is pleasant not only to sunbathe here, but also to collect unusual shells, generously scattered among the snow-white sand. Adherents of an active lifestyle choose it for the opportunity to rent a canoe or windsurf.
Admirers of the latter, however, more often prefer the rocky Porto Istana, where there are both suitable natural conditions and equipment rental stations. Nearby are places where you can replenish the calories spent during classes.
Even more family cafes and pizzerias nest at Bados, which is usually reached by commuter train or a rental car. There are almost no noisy water scooters and other water transport, so nothing will disturb your peace while swimming and relaxing in a sun lounger.
Punta Corallina and Le Saline are not crowded due to their relative remoteness, and this may appeal to vacationers who value personal space. In addition, excellent waves are “caught” on the second one, so surfers who come to Olbia, regardless of their skill level, should definitely look at it.
Restaurants and local cuisine
It is Olbia, unlike most of the "star" resorts of the Emerald Coast, is famous for its abundance of cozy restaurants, where preference is given not to fashionable variations on the theme of Italian cuisine, but to the centuries-old traditions of Sardinia. Since the city is located on the coast, it is natural that fish and seafood are widely represented on the menu. They are all fresh, which means they are extremely tasty. We recommend trying the traditional seafood fregula pasta or the more common scallop spaghetti. Gourmets are advised to order, in addition to the latter, grated bottarga (specially dried mullet or tuna caviar).
However, the owners of trattorias will also find something to treat to ardent fans of meat. What is worth at least a whole roasted Pulceddu pig or seasoned sausages with a pronounced taste, which in past centuries were prepared for shepherds who were away from home for a long time.
They eat snails and sea urchins in Sardinia, but these are rather exotic delicacies. If you want something simpler, pay attention to small pies with various fillings, they are called empanadas, in the Spanish manner. The local “musical” bread is famous all over Italy. Thin and crispy sheets of carazau can be tasted both in restaurants and in small shops or street vendors.
This land is also rich in unusual cheeses that go well with island wines. Even the well-known Gallurian soup is made with fresh cow's milk cheese. For dessert in Olbia, cheese is also served: it is baked in bran flour dough, and poured with honey when served. The so-called seadas are very tasty and are the main sweetness on the menu.
Tourism infrastructure
In fact, the city is adjacent to the famous Emerald Coast. The Costa Smeralda, which was created in the middle of the last century by enterprising businessmen and talented architects, attracts guests with magnificent sandy beaches, spectacular seascapes, a wide selection of comfortable hotels and upscale marinas. The main category of holidaymakers in Porto Rotondo, Porto Cirvo, Pantochia and Cala Grana are more than wealthy people. Olbia looks quite democratic compared to its neighbors.
It is not for nothing that experts call the city the most developed in the northern part of the island. It is Terranova (as Olbia is called by the Sardinians themselves) that boasts the best catering establishments, boutiques and interesting bars. Corso Umberto, very close to historical center, opens the eyes of travelers to a rich palette of trendy shops and cozy restaurants.
Most hotels in Olbia have three or four stars and offer their guests a decent level of service and pleasant bonuses in the form of their own gyms and spas, where you can spend time with health and beauty benefits. If you want to compare all the available beaches, regular buses running along the coast are at your service.
Those who prefer maximum freedom of movement will find it useful to know that you can rent a car right at the airport, although there is competition in this type of business, and this rental point is far from the only one. The city streets and highways outside the settlement are in excellent condition, so you will enjoy driving along them.

Popular hotels in Olbia
Cuisine and restaurants
Since Olbia is a city on the coast, all local restaurants and cafes offer marine reptiles in abundance in their menu. But meat is also "in favor" here. It is worth trying the traditional piece of Da Gimmy pork and washing it down with local wine Officina Del Gusto. Of course, Italian cuisine cannot imagine itself without pasta, the highlight of pasta in Olbia is sauces - hand-made according to old recipes. We also advise you to try the local lobster, which is listed as Lobster Catalan Style on the menu (the best place where it is cooked, according to locals, is Le Caravella restaurant).
Already familiar to us, Corso Umberto (see introduction) is the best place for a pleasant dinner or an invigorating breakfast. Here you should look into Shergan or Terra Sarda, where national dishes are prepared. And also in Ristorante Gallura - a small and very cozy restaurant, the "hit" of which is polenta with saffron sauce. Fish is also excellent here, but be prepared to shell out at least 35-40 EUR for a main course.

The most popular beach is Pittulongu with white sand and a large collection of all kinds of shells in it. Nestled on the crescent-shaped coast, it is famous for its excellent restaurants and is easily accessible by public transport (address: Strada Provincale 82).

The finds made there can be seen in the sumptuous Archaeological Museum.
The category of "antiquities" also includes the Punic necropolis, ancient city walls and Roman baths. Of the "medieval" sights, it is noteworthy Romanesque church from San Simplicio granite. The 17th century was marked by the charming St. Paul's Cathedral.
In the vicinity, it is worth seeing the nuraghe "Kabu Abbas", the burial ground "Su Monte and S'Abe", the source of "Sa Testa" and the beautiful Maddalena archipelago (now - national park).

A single ticket costs 1€ when purchased at ASPO sales points or Tabacchi kiosks, and 1.5€ from the driver. This ticket is valid for 90 minutes and allows you to make transfers. When traveling more than 2 times a day, purchase a 24-hour pass for 2.8€.
Sights of Olbia in 1 day
There are much fewer interesting places in the city than in the capital of the island, so it’s enough to set aside 1 day for this. Below complete map all places visited in 3 days.
Piazza Regina Margherita - Piazza Regina Margherita
The square looks best in the evening, when all the tourists return from the beaches and fill the cafes and shops.
The square sometimes caught free WiFi from the most prestigious hotel in the city. Do not rush to rejoice at the freebie, because in the evening you will not be able to sit down on a bench and post pictures. The shops are always busy in the evening, but during the day everyone is free.
Punic walls
From the square we will go to the main cathedral of Olbia, or rather to the basilica, but before that we will make a short detour to see the ruins of the city wall. To do this, we turn to the neighboring Piazza Giacomo Matteotti and dive into the courtyards.
Finding the ruins is not so easy, I had to climb through the yards between Via Torino and Via Acquedotto.
Basilica of San Simplicio
A straight road leads from the ruins of the wall to the basilica along Via Goffredo Mameli. I expected to see a healthy high building in a small area, but it turned out the opposite. A small building and a large deserted square, which looked somehow fantastic. Didn't get inside because the basilica was closed.
The basilica was built in the 11th century, but slabs and stones from more than ancient temple and therefore it may seem that it is much older.
City Park Fausto Noce
The city park appeared in 2004, which you will be informed about by a sign at the entrance to the park. This is the most big park in Olbia and we can say that before him there were no parks in the city, except for a small lawn near the pier.
Ahead is a 2 km walk to the Roman aqueduct and public transport does not go there, so we will stock up on strength and water in a supermarket near the park.
If you go the right way, bypassing the railway tracks, then there will be a 2 km detour, but we decided to take a chance and cut the road through the residential sector in the hope of finding a short passage. At the same time, on the way we looked at a one-story residential Sardinia.
Roman aqueduct
Having made the way through residential areas, I had to hiccup a hole in the fence through railway and he was just in the place where the aqueduct was. For comparison, photos of the central entrance and black. With the help of this manhole, the road was halved from 2 km to 1 km.
There is almost nothing left of the aqueduct except a couple of stones, but this is much more than from the Punic walls. An aqueduct is a water supply system and you might think how advanced the city of Olbia was in the 5th century BC, but this is not entirely true. The aqueduct is not connected to the city system and historians suggest that it was used to supply the estate of the imperial family.
We return back almost the same way to Piazza Regina Margherita, we just go around the park and the basilica so as not to make a detour.
Corso Umberto I
From the square, now we are going east towards the sea, or rather, we will walk to seaport along Corso Umberto I. Each resort town there is such a promenade street, during the day it is half empty, and in the evening it comes to life like the central square.
Somewhere in the middle of the street we will make a small retreat and turn onto Via Cagliari to see one of the few churches in the city.
Church of St. Paul
It is common to see Catholic churches in every city in Europe, and especially in Italy, on every corner, but here they are unusually few or even very few. This is the second one we found and never saw again. Compared to the basilica, this church can be considered a remake if we compare the 18th century with the 11th.
city hall
The promenade street ends with the local city hall, usually such a building is called the town hall, but here I did not find such a name.
It is worth returning here in the evening for the sake of the opening bazaar. It is touristy and they sell all sorts of nonsense on it, but there is something interesting here - this is Sardinian honey.
Without turning anywhere from Corso Umberto I, we cross the road and go to Brin Pier, where only one parked sailboat was of interest.
Near the pier there is a small alley with the proud name of Giardinetti Park.
Just like the churches, Olbia cannot boast of a large number of museums. Maybe there are much more museums and churches, but next to the park we stumbled upon the Museum of Archeology and we didn’t see the Museum sign anywhere else.
What was my chagrin when I found out that this museum was free. This is how palm trees, the sea and mountains distract from clear thinking and make you forget even about freebies.
Seaport of Olbia
There was still time and it was decided to take a walk to the seaport. The total march from the park back and forth was about 3 km, and to be honest, seeing the station building and the parking lot at the end was not worth such sacrifices.
I wish I could write that the walk to the port was pleasant and the views were wonderful. I even tried to sit under scorching sun on this bench. But the views were very mediocre, and the bench was so hot that it was impossible to sit there for more than a minute.
The road to the port partly passes through the military camp and this is felt even by the palm trees, which lined up exactly like soldiers in the ranks.
small streets
Small streets in Italy and throughout Europe are an atmospheric and unofficial landmark of many cities. It's always a pleasure to wander through them. This concludes the first day in Olbia.
Olbia city in 2 days
On the second day, we took a breather and went to the beach in the Pittulongu area. In total, we went through 5 beaches in the area and I took out a detailed description of each in a separate story -.
We got to the beach on bus 4, having bought a ticket for 2.8 € before that at the Tabacchi kiosk near the filmed one.
The most transparent water best beach was at the final stop of 4 buses. The stop is named after BADOS beach. In order not to duplicate the story about the beaches, I will show only a couple of photos.
Olbia in 3 days
The whole road from the apartment up the mountain to the nuraghe and back took about 4-5 hours. After such a short track, you won’t want to do anything else because of fatigue and heat. Therefore, it is worth allocating a whole day for nuraghe.
That's the whole of Olbia in 3 days, but the trip around Sardinia by public transport is not over yet. Subscribe to the news and follow our budget trips.
The cost of a trip to Olbia for 3 days
Due to almost free housing, my expenses amounted to no more than 50 €, but this is more an exception, so I will give a budget calculation for staying in Sardinia in the city of Olbia. For example, we flew to Cagliari and decided to go to Olbia, and then to Porto Torres.
- — 18€
- 24 hour travel card - 2.8€
- for 3 nights — 218€ (109€ per person)
- — 9.5€
Total for 1 person for 3 days, the minimum spending will be 140 €, excluding food costs.
Have a nice holiday! Ms. Natalina
