Marine Transport Services to Olbia 40°55'N 9°34'E

Olbia, a fishing port and car-ferry terminus on the edge of the Costa Smeralda in Sardinia.
Sardinia is the most magnificent of Italian islands, is also one of the largest in the Mediterranean, second only to Sicily.
It has more than 1800 km of coastline with over 300 beaches of fine golden sand and countless rocky inlets, some of which are accessible only from the sea.
It is an island which harmonises and balances the senses of colour, fragrance and flavour with nature, history and tradition.
The azure-blue Mediterranean, speckled with pink from the flocking flamingoes, the intense colours of peony and spring flowers, the warmth of the sun's golden rays, the soft white sandy beaches, the verdant expanses of rich vegetation and the silver sheen of the magnificent rock faces all conspire to create a magnificent rainbow of colours.
The maquis, myrtle, cork oaks, juniper and oleander trees all make their individual and distinctive contributions to a wonderfully aromatic atmosphere.

Dockwise yacht shipping services provide safe, reliable way for clients to visit Olbia.
