Olbia → Palau: key facts

Private transfer, Olbia Airport (OLB) to Palau: the car (1–3 passengers) is €130 and the van (4–8) is €180, a set price for the vehicle that does not change at checkout. Expect 46 km on the road via SS125 and SP4M; about 55 min off-peak, 55–70 min in rush hour.

Pickup: The driver waits in the arrivals hall of the Olbia Costa Smeralda terminal, just after the baggage reclaim exit, holding a sign with your name. The booking includes flight monitoring and an hour of free waiting from touchdown; your bags are loaded for you.

Palau is a small port town on the northern tip of Gallura and the departure point for the ferries to the La Maddalena archipelago. The drive follows the SS125 Orientale Sarda north from Olbia through the countryside of Gallura and the town of Arzachena, where the road becomes Viale Costa Smeralda, and continues on the same road to Palau. It is a single-carriageway road with roundabouts; in summer, traffic builds up near Arzachena and at the entrance to Palau when ferries arrive and depart.

The ferry terminal for La Maddalena is at the harbour, at the bottom of the main street, so passengers continuing to the islands can be dropped right at the port. On the headland east of the town, Capo d'Orso has the granite rock shaped like a bear that gives the cape its name. West of Palau, Porto Pollo is a long beach known for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Hotels and holiday homes are spread around the harbour, along the coast towards Capo d'Orso and around Porto Pollo, and most are reachable by car.

Public transport instead: Turmo Travel bus Olbia Airport - Palau - Santa Teresa Gallura (seasonal) from Olbia Airport, platform 5 to Palau (Stazione Marittima, ferry port) — about 50 min, 7 departures a day (09:30-21:00), 1 June - 30 September 2024. ARST bus Olbia Airport - Arzachena - Palau from Olbia Airport, platform 4 to Palau — about 1h 2min, 1 early-morning departure (06:15), 14 September - 15 June.
