Where can I find a Pacific Beach car rental if I am younger than 25?
The ability to rent a car under the age of 25 in Pacific Beach often depends on the holiday home supplier you choose. Some businesses apply a surcharge for customers aged between 21 and 24 years, but other companies may not apply any extra fees for this age range. It’d be smart to go through the terms and conditions of your chosen car company to escape extra costs when picking up your keys.
Can I drive in Pacific Beach with my current driver's license?
If you don’t possess a driver’s license issued in the United States, then you may need to organise an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your home country before renting a car in the U.S. If you find that an IDP is required, be aware that you’ll also have to show your current valid driver’s license and your passport or other forms of ID. Lastly, the credit card used to rent the vehicle must match the name on your driver’s license and passport in order to confirm your home. Other things you should know about rental cars in the U.S. Are:

  • Age restrictions: You’ll need to be 25 or older in many states to rent a car, although in some places the minimum age is 21. We recommend checking state and local regulations, as well as with the company you’re renting from before your trip to understand additional terms and conditions.
  • Driving limitations: Be sure to read the fine print before you get behind the wheel to avoid unnecessary fees. When renting a car in the United States, you typically can’t cross country borders into Mexico or Canada, drive onto ferries or go off-roading with a rental car.
