Top tips for hiring a car in Exuma

  • If you’re wondering whether you should rent a car while in Exuma; rest assured that it is definitely worthwhile. Granted, the roads in Exuma tend to have some potholes, but renting a car affords you the freedom to travel at your own pace and schedule. You can visit a specific destination for as long as you like, and you won’t have to deal with crowds. Car rental companies in Exuma are known to have excellent customer service and usually offer a variety of car types to suit your travel needs. And depending on where you rent from, the car is very likely to be in good shape.
  • If you're traveling with a child, you’ll need a car seat. Infants under the age of one will need to ride in a rear-facing car seat and toddlers will need to be in forward-facing car seats. Children shorter than 4 foot 9 inches are required to be in booster seats. However, if they are taller than 4 foot 9 inches and older than eight, having them buckle their seatbelts without a car seat is fine. You can either bring your own car seat, ask the car rental agency for one, or even ask if the hotel provides any. Adults are also required to have seatbelts on, and remember to drive on the left side of the road.
  • Several stunning islands border Exuma; hence, it's not unusual for people to island-hop. In such cases, some prefer to take their rental cars with them. However, the best thing to do is rent a different vehicle once you’re on another island. You can also have the vehicle ferried onto a different island, but this will cost you. If the car company you're renting from allows this, you'll have to pay them extra. There's also the matter of getting insurance, which is often tricky. This leaves you liable for any damage to the vehicle.
  • Not all car rental agencies offer full car insurance. Some offer third-party insurance, which is accessible to drivers with a valid driver's license who are over twenty five years old. Those under that age may have to opt for open insurance. It's also not unlikely to find companies that don't offer any insurance. Keep in mind that there is just one main road in Exuma and no gas stations in Little Exuma, but you'll find one past the airport on Queen's Highway and two in Georgetown.

FAQs about hiring a car in Exuma

  • Should I hire a car in Exuma?

    Compared to using public transportation, renting a car is beneficial in terms of cost and flexibility. Almost every tourist chooses to rent a car for sightseeing purposes, and the opportunities are numerous. You’ll find that you can quickly and easily travel to top destinations such as Little Exuma and CoCo Plum Beach. There's the option to use a taxi, but fares are high and can end up straining your budget, and the mini bus transfers on the island mainly specialize in picking travelers up from the airport and dropping them at their hotels.

  • What is driving like in Exuma?

    Watch out for potholes, blind curves, pedestrians and large trucks while driving in Exuma. Occasional rain can also make driving around the island very difficult and will probably bring the day's exploration activities to a halt. Apart from speeding large trucks, most drivers are laid back and tend to drive at a good pace due to the poor road conditions. You'll notice that most of the cars in Exuma are old, which means that the vehicle you're renting likely won't be new either. Regardless, rental vehicles are often in good condition.

  • How old do you have to be to hire a car in Exuma?

    The age requirement for renting a car in Exuma is twenty five years old. You’ll find that some rental companies are willing to rent out to individuals at least twenty one years old, but it will cost extra. To rent a car, you'll need your driver's license, a credit card, and an International Driver's license if you're from a non-English-speaking country. Some car rental companies require you to provide your passport as well.
