Olbia

Town Hall, Olbia
The Happy Town
The modern and lively town of Olbia was known as “the happy town” by the Greeks and is famous all over the world for its close proximity to the Costa Smeralda. It stands on a wide natural gulf whose edges are delimited by the splendid islands of Tavolara and Molara. The Costa Smeralda airport lies in this area and continues to record increased numbers of tourists every year.
Open Theatre, Porto RotondoPorto RotondoThe small town of Porto Rotondo rises at just a few minutes from Olbia along the SS 125 on the northern side of the Punta Volpe headland. Rather than a real village, it is actually a well-planned tourist resort which was born in the golden years of development of the Costa Smeralda.
