"Pittulongu is the favourite beach of the Olbia locals — the one they visit at weekends, where they take their children, where they go for the evening aperitivo. White sand, gently sloping seabed, view of Tavolara. 5 km from Olbia city centre, 10 minutes from the airport."

Pittulongu is a seaside hamlet of the municipality of Olbia, a circa 5 km dal centro città in direzione nord-est. Per gli olbiesi è “the home beach” — quella dove vanno tutto l’anno, anche d’inverno per camminare al tramonto. Sabbia chiara, fondale degradante, vista sull’isola di Tavolara, lunghezza di circa 1,5 km.
It is a residential-tourist: ville, residence, ristoranti di pesce, qualche bar. Atmosfera meno mondana di Costa Smeralda, meno “scoperta” di San Teodoro, ma con il vantaggio enorme della proximity to the airport (10 minutes) and to the centre of Olbia (10 minutes).
We at AffittaSardegna directly manage 3 properties in Pittulongu since 2011 — a targeted selection for those who want to combine excellent sea + the convenience of Olbia. Ideal for transit stays (first/last day), families with flights/ferries, business travellers who want the sea 5 minutes from work.
Pittulongu beach stretches for about 1.5 km with fine pale sand, a gently shelving seabed perfect for children, sea with turquoise reflections. Awarded the Blue Flag several times. Three main stretches:
The busiest stretch, equipped with beach clubs, bars and restaurants. A family-friendly and lively atmosphere.
The northern stretch, a quieter little cove, sandy seabed, an intimate atmosphere. Frequented by locals.
The southern stretch, a wilder beach with rocks behind it. Excellent for snorkelling.
Tutta la spiaggia ha vista sull’isola di Tavolara — scenografia naturale unica.
Da Porto San Paolo (10 km) partono escursioni giornaliere all’Area Marina Protetta di Tavolara con snorkeling, pranzo a bordo, vista del Monte Tavolara. Costo 60-90€ a persona.
10 minutes away by car, the pedestrian centre of Olbia with excellent fish restaurants. Olbia mussels, bottarga, fritto misto at prices much more affordable than the Costa Smeralda.
Porto Cervo 30 minutes away, Porto Rotondo 15 minutes away. Enjoy an evening on the Costa Smeralda without paying to stay there. Back to Pittulongu to sleep.
A 20-30 minuti le spiagge icona di San Teodoro: La Cinta (5 km di sabbia bianca) e Cala Brandinchi (il “Tahiti sardo”). Mezza giornata o giornata intera.
Indispensable for making the most of the hub location. We compare via Discover Cars — average saving 35%.
