But Shell Beach can be explored in almost any type of rental you like. Compacts, premiums and SUVs are among your options.

How old do you have to be to hire a car in Shell Beach?
The youngest age you can rent a vehicle in Shell Beach is 21. A surcharge for young drivers applies, so check before you book and budget for any extra costs. There may also be restrictions on the car categories available to young drivers. For instance, some outlets will only hire out small to medium-sized cars to young motorists. Rules may differ between outlets, so read the fine print carefully.
What do you need to hire a car in Shell Beach?
The main requirements are a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. Many car hire companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you choose to opt out. Be sure to check your policy terms and conditions to avoid any issues.

Can I hire a car for a month or longer in Shell Beach?
Yes, so you won't need to rebook a rental vehicle halfway through your holiday. Check out our long-term car hire deals page, enter your details and secure a set of wheels that's all yours for the duration of your escape.
Where can I find a Shell Beach hire car if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look into the age policy of the Shell Beach hire suppliers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge additional fees. It's best to know this ahead of time so you can plan your budget accordingly. Each rental car company has its own policies for young drivers, so it'd be wise to do your research.
Can I drive in Shell Beach with my current driver's license?
If you don't have a license issued in the United States, you may be required to apply for an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before hiring a car. If you find that an IDP is required, know that you'll also have to show your current driver's license and your passport or other forms of identification. Lastly, the credit card that was used to hire the vehicle must also match the name on your driver's license and passport in order to confirm your hire. Some additional requirements for hiring a car in the U.S. Are:
  • Age restrictions: You'll need to be 25 in many states to hire a car, although in some areas allow drivers as young as 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the hired car company before you book to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When hiring a car in the United States, you typically can't cross country borders into Canada or Mexico, drive on ferries or traverse rough terrain with a hire car. Please read the details before booking!
