Olbia (Sardinia)
Often ignored in the mad dash to the Costa Smeralda, Olbia has more to offer than first meets the eye. Stroll the beautiful waterfront and then walk down the Corso Umberto I, the epicenter of shopping and nightlife in town. Then, take some time to view archaeological ruins and artifacts that educate visitors on the lives people led here as far back as the Phoenician and Roman eras. When you`ve finished explored Olbia, you can head outside of town and explore everything from beach towns on the Costa Smeralda to the marine reserve on Isola Tavolara, described once upon a time as "the world's smallest kingdom." Visit and explore the Nuraghe Riu Mulinu, Basilica di San Simplicio, Chiesa di San Paolo Apostolo, Castello di Pedres, Parco Fausto Noce, Tomba dei Giganti Su Monte S`Abe, Porto Rotondo, Golfo Aranci, Pittulongu, Porto San Paolo, Isola Tavolara, Capo Coda Cavallo, and so much more.

Emerald Coast (Sardinia)
The enchanting Emerald Coast is located on the northeastern portion of Sardinia and is known for its sparkling emerald green and turquoise waters and fine sand beaches. It remains a fun-in-the-sun vacation spot for Europe's upper-class and international celebrities, but you can enjoy this luxurious destination just as easily! With Olbia as a main commercial and cultural center, travelers can also explore San Teodoro, Budoni, Golfo Aranci, Porto Cervo, Baja Sardinia, or Palau, where they can hop a ferry to Isola Maddalena, with its iconic pink granite coastline. Discover and explore natural coves like Cala di Volpe or Cala Mariolu, architectural gems like the church of Stella Maris (in Arzachena), beautiful beaches, boutique shops, and natural wonders like the Devil's Saddle and Giant's Grave, and so much more.
