Top tips for renting a car in Bora Bora

  • If you will be traveling to Bora Bora with your family, it is important to keep in mind that while Tahiti does require all passengers to always wear their seatbelts, the country does not have any official car seat laws. Because of this, you will not receive a fine for using an American-style car seat, although they typically use British-style car seats on the island. You will need to use your own judgment and decide what type of car seat is correct and necessary for your child depending on their age, weight, and height.
  • When driving at night, you will want to be particularly careful. Many parts of the island are not well-lit, and there are quite a few individuals that ride bikes but do not use lights while doing so. To make sure that you do not end up in a collision, you will want to drive slower than normal and pay particular attention to your surroundings.
  • French Polynesia, including Bora Bora, has very strict laws on drinking and driving. On the island, the maximum blood alcohol content is 0.05%. You will want to be very careful if you decide to consume any alcohol and then drive, as being over the limit is not only dangerous but can result in you having to pay an expensive fee or even serving jail time.
  • To be as safe as possible and help prevent yourself from getting pulled over, make sure you are up to date on local speed limits. When driving within towns and villages, the maximum speed limit is typically 40 kmh (24 mph). If you are on an open road that is outside of an urban area, the speed limit is usually up to 80 kmh (48 mph) instead.
  • Book your rental car in Bora Bora at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
  • Mini rental cars in Bora Bora are around -43% cheaper than other car types, on average

  • Should I rent a car in Bora Bora?

    Many parts of Bora Bora are remote and are not well connected to public transportation, making a car rental the easiest and most comfortable way to move throughout the island. If you plan on enjoying any recreational activities, like hiking, relaxing at the beach, or cycling, a car will also allow you to conveniently transport the equipment that you need. Plus, having your own vehicle will enable you to explore the island on your own schedule and will mean that you won’t have to worry about waiting for a bus.

  • What is driving like in Bora Bora?

    Driving in Bora Bora is relatively simple and straightforward, as the island is quite remote and you will never find yourself stuck in congestion or a traffic jam. The roads are also very well maintained and there are clear signs that will notify you of any important traffic laws, such as the speed limit. However, some parts of the island have roads that are rather narrow and steep, so you will want to pay particular attention when driving on these, and usually, it is best to limit your speed.

  • How old do you have to be to rent a car in Bora Bora?

    To rent a car in Bora Bora, you are required to be a minimum of 21 years old, but many companies will require you to be at least 25 years old. If you are under 25 years old, it is likely that you will be required to pay a young driver’s fee for each day of your rental. Keep in mind that to rent a car in French Polynesia, which includes Bora Bora, you will either need to have a driver’s license that is in both English and French, or you will need to provide a valid international driver’s license. You will also need to show your passport.
