Why choose Olbia for your road trip

Olbia — a city worth exploring

Olbia sits at the head of a long, sheltered inlet on Sardinia's north-eastern coast and serves as the island's busiest gateway, with Olbia Costa Smeralda Airport welcoming more passengers each year than any other airport in Sardinia. The city's archaeological heart is on display at the Museo Archeologico di Olbia, where the hulls of Roman shipwrecks discovered in the old harbour tell a story stretching back over two millennia. Stroll through Corso Umberto I, the pedestrianised main street lined with cafés and boutiques, before visiting the Romanesque Basilica di San Simplicio, Sardinia's most important medieval church. A short walk north brings you to the Chiesa di San Paolo, topped by its colourful majolica-tiled dome. Beyond the city, the coastline opens up quickly — Porto Rotondo is just 18 km to the north, while the white-sand beaches of San Teodoro lie roughly 28 km to the south. Flat coastal roads and well-signed dual carriageways make Olbia an ideal starting point for a campervan or motorhome trip around Gallura. With Yescapa, you hire directly from local owners based in and around Olbia, which means flexible pick-up points, insider tips on the best seaside stops, and peer-to-peer pricing that keeps your holiday budget in check. Whether you are planning a quick coastal loop or a full Sardinian circuit, Olbia gives you the perfect launchpad in a campervan.

Best time to visit

Olbia enjoys a long season of warm, settled weather from May through to October, making it one of the most flexible destinations for a campervan trip. June and September are particularly rewarding — the beaches are quieter and coastal campsites have good availability. If you visit in mid-July, the Olbia Film Festival brings open-air screenings to the waterfront, while the Festa di San Simplicio in mid-May fills the city with processions, live music and local food stalls. Summer is the most popular period, so booking your motorhome on Yescapa a few weeks ahead helps you lock in the best choice from local owners. Olbia is equally enjoyable in spring, when wildflowers carpet the Gallura hills.

We had a fantastic experience hiring this campervan! It was very clean, well maintained and exactly as pictured. Alberto, the owner, was incredibly friendly and helpful, and was always happy to answer any questions we had. The campervan was perfect for the three people travelling in our party and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip. The heating, hot water and electricity all worked perfectly, and having a cooker and fridge meant we could easily prepare meals and store food. We would highly recommend this campervan to anyone looking for a trip away, and wouldn’t hesitate to hire it again. Thank you Alberto!

Thank you, Jesús María, for one of our best travel experiences! Great communication before our arrival and warm welcome in Málaga were the perfect start to the trip. The van was fully equipped, and we had an amazing time exploring beautiful Andalusia. It was hard to say goodbye to our little home on wheels, but hopefully we’ll get the chance to take it on another adventure someday! Highly recommended! 🚐⭐️
