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 diciembre 18, 2024.
  • If you are getting Azores Islands car rentals and you will be driving with children, make sure you know the child car seat requirements before you pick up your vehicle. In Portugal, all children under the age of 12 or under the height of 135 cm (4 ft 4 in) must be in the back seat of the vehicle in an approved child car seat. If you need a car seat, be sure to request one in advance to ensure availability when you arrive.
  • In the Azores Islands, as well as in the rest of Portugal, it is important to know that the use of cell phones while driving is not allowed under any circumstances. This also means you cannot even use your device in hands-free mode. Getting caught using your phone in any way while driving is cause for strict penalties, such as fines. If you need to use a GPS device to navigate, it is therefore important to request a GPS add-on to your Portugal car rental so that you will not need to use your mobile phone for this purpose.
  • As the Azores Islands are an archipelago made up of 9 volcanic islands, it is good to know which islands you’ll be exploring in your Azores Islands rental car in advance. The main one and the biggest one is Sao Miguel, which is home to the Ponta Delgado airport, the airport you’re likely flying into. There are a few islands close to Sao Miguel that you can reach by ferry. However, if you plan to take the ferry to other islands in your rental car in the Azores Islands, you need to ask your rental car agency in advance, as this may require extra insurance or paperwork.
