Should I hire a car in Sardinia with Zest Car Rental?
A hire car is the easiest and quickest way to explore Sardinia. This large Italian island is waiting to be discovered and by hiring a car with Zest, you're ensuring that you're able to discover and enjoy every mile of this Mediterranean gem.
Sardinia, the jewel of the Mediterranean, is a paradise for beach lovers, and exploring its coastline with a hire car is a must. Drive to the stunning beaches of Costa Smeralda, known for their crystal-clear waters and powdery white sands. One of the most famous is Spiaggia Capriccioli, a postcard-perfect spot for sunbathing and swimming. Don't forget to visit Cala Luna, a secluded beach accessible by boat or car, nestled beneath dramatic limestone cliffs.
Explore Sardinia's stunning coastline.
While Sardinia's coastline is breathtaking, its interior is equally captivating. Renting a car allows you to venture into the rugged heart of the island. Drive to the Supramonte region, where you can explore deep canyons, limestone caves, and traditional villages like Orgosolo, known for its colorful murals. Take a scenic drive through the Gennargentu National Park, home to the island's highest peaks, including Punta La Marmora.
Since 1st January 2021, if you have an old paper style UK driving license, you may need an International Driving Permit to hire a car in Sardinia.

Where can I rent a car in Sardinia?

Cagliari Airport - The bustling capital of Sardinia, Cagliari, is the perfect starting point for exploring the southern side of this amazing Italian island. Once a day out seeing the sights has come to a close, there are excellent restaurants serving delicious local cuisine to visit, as well as brilliant options for accommodation. Pick up a rental car here to explore the southern half of Sardinia.
Olbia Airport - Head to the port of Olbia and you’ll find yourself a stone's throw away from a selection of picturesque beaches that line Sardinia's jagged northern coast. In order to see a glitzier side of the island make sure you pay Costa Smeralda a visit too.
Alghero Airport - Although Sardinia is an Italian island, the resort of Alghero in the north has managed to maintain its wonderful Catalan heritage - the language is still spoken throughout this district and the Spanish legacy continues in the nearby town of Iglesias, where the atmosphere is much more Spanish.
