Tips for renting a car in Azores

Browse helpful tips for renting a car in Azores including age restrictions, car type suggestions and more. Tips were last updated on 19 March 2024.
  • The Azores, an autonomous region of Portugal, typically follow Portuguese laws and regulations regarding car seat safety for children. Children under 12 months of age or weighing up to 13 kg (29 lbs) must be secured in a rear-facing car seat. Children between 1 and 3 years of age or weighing between 9 kg and 18 kg (20 and 40 lbs) should be seated in a forward-facing car seat. Additionally, children between 3 and 12 years old or with a height less than 135 cm (4 feet 5 inches) should use a booster seat.
  • Finding gas stations on the Azores islands is generally straightforward, especially in more populated and tourist-oriented areas. In towns and urban centers like Ponta Delgada or Angra do Heroísmo, you will find numerous gas stations. In more remote or less populated regions of the islands, gas stations may be less frequent. Some smaller or less-traveled roads might not have gas stations for an extended stretch, so plan your refueling stops accordingly. Gas stations in the Azores may have specific opening and closing times. Some stations close for a few hours during the day and may not operate 24/7. Be aware of station hours, especially if you're driving at night or during off-peak hours.
  • You can typically take rental cars on ferry boats between the islands in the Azores. The Azores are an archipelago consisting of nine major islands, and ferries are a common mode of transportation between them. Check with your car rental company to understand their policies regarding taking rental cars on ferries. Some companies may have specific guidelines or restrictions, so it's important to be aware of any additional charges or requirements. Inter-island ferry routes are essential for exploring different islands within the Azores. These routes provide the opportunity to experience the unique landscapes and attractions of each island.

Car rental FAQs

Find answers to frequently asked questions about car rentals in Azores, including policies, requirements, and more. FAQs were last updated on 19 March 2024.
  • Should I rent a car in the Azores?

    If you plan to visit multiple islands within the Azores, having a car can be highly convenient. Inter-island travel often involves ferry or plane trips, and having a car allows you to explore each island at your own pace. The Azores are known for their stunning natural beauty, including volcanic landscapes, hiking trails, and remote natural attractions. Having a car provides the flexibility to access and explore these areas. Renting a car offers the convenience of coming and going as you please, avoiding the constraints of public transportation schedules or the need to rely on taxis.

  • What is driving like in the Azores?

    Driving in the Azores provides a unique and scenic experience, with well-maintained road networks connecting towns and tourist attractions. These islands are renowned for their natural beauty, offering volcanic craters, lush green landscapes, and coastal vistas. While traffic congestion is less common, peak tourist seasons can lead to congestion in urban areas. Speed limits are clearly posted, roundabouts are frequently encountered, and parking regulations should be observed, although parking spaces may be limited and expensive in tourist hubs. Additionally, some roads, particularly in rural or mountainous areas, can be narrow and winding, requiring caution.

  • How old do you need to be to rent a car in the Azores?

    The standard minimum age for renting a car in the Azores is 18 years. Nonetheless, it's important to note that various car rental companies may impose age restrictions, with many requiring renters to be at least 21 years old. Furthermore, some agencies may set a minimum age threshold of 25. These age requirements can differ from one rental company to another, making it imperative to clarify the age policies, associated fees, or surcharges with the specific rental agency you intend to use. In cases where drivers are under the age of 21 or 25 and are allowed to rent a car, they might encounter additional charges, commonly known as "young driver" surcharges. These surcharges are typically applied due to the perceived higher risk associated with younger drivers.
