Read through the rules carefully before clicking book and factor any extra fees into your travel budget.
What do you need to rent a car in Long Bay?
Be prepared to present a valid driver's licence and a credit card at the rental counter. Prior to the pickup date, check with your chosen rental company whether anything else is needed. For example, you may also need to show proof of insurance.
What side of the road do you drive on in Long Bay?

Where can I find a Long Bay car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to check the age policy of the Long Bay rental providers you're interested in. If you're under 25 years of age, some outlets will charge extra fees.

Every rental car company has its own terms and conditions for younger drivers, so it pays to do your research.
