What do you need to rent a car in Morro Bay?
Most of the time, all you’ll need is a current driver’s license and credit card in your name when picking up your vehicle.

Where can I find a Morro Bay car rental if I am younger than 25?
If you’re a young driver looking for a holiday home in Morro Bay, we recommend checking the terms and conditions of the various car rental companies you’re interested in. Some may rent to drivers under the age of 25 some may not. There may be extra costs if you’re between 21 and 24 years of age. To avoid any nasty surprises at the holiday home desk, make sure you know if any extra charges apply to you.
Can I drive in Morro Bay with my current driver's license?
If you don’t have a license issued in the United States, you may be required to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your country of residence before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is part of the requirements to drive in the U.S, note that you’ll also need to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other form of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the car must match the name on your license and passport in order to finalize your car rental. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You need to be 25 or older in most states to be able to rent a car, although in some areas, 21 years and older is allowed. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the rental car company before you travel to understand all the terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Don’t forget to read the fine print before you slide behind the wheel so you can avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, it’s usually prohibited to cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive on ferries or traverse off-road areas with your rental car. We recommend reading all the rules and regulations before you book!
