How to Reach Sardinia

Moby Line Sardinia

It’s hard to suggest the best way to reach Sardinia, as it mostly depends on individual needs and possibilities. Those who wish to move autonomously should prefer the ferry boat, bringing their car or motorbike with them. There are many cheap options if you book in advance: all sea companies, in fact, offer car passages from 1 to 5 Euro, and deck-passage, seats or cabin at very affordable prices. But advance booking is essential: if your holiday is strictly scheduled and you don’t have the possibility to change the arrival or departure date, which is the basic requirement to take advantage of the low fares, you risk paying a very expensive tariff, especially in high season.
In case you could not book in advance or could not grab the offer, it might be a good idea to rent a car once you are on the place, in this way you won’t have to renounce to your itinerant journey.

Travelling by plane is recommended in case of short stay in one of the main cities, or in case of steady holiday in some seaside locations which are easily reachable by public transports or shuttle services arranged by the tourist structure. Also in this case time is essential, so if you book in advance or take advantage of last minute offers, you may fly from the main Italian cities at really paltry costs.
And Sardinia is now served by some of the most famous low cost companies.
