KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in Pantelleria
- Car hire in Pantelleria offers flexibility and convenience. Unlike public transport, you can explore at your own pace and visit places not accessible by bus or ferry. While there are buses on the island, they are infrequent and may not take you everywhere you want to go. Must-visit places such as Cala Cinque Denti and Arco dell'Elefante are not easily accessible by public transport, but with a car, you can easily reach these stunning locations.
- When considering car hire in Pantelleria, and arriving directly at Pantelleria Airport (PNL), you'll find car hire desks are conveniently located in the arrivals hall. The desks are easy to find upon exiting the arrivals area. To get to the car hire car park, simply follow the signs from the terminal building. Pantelleria Airport is the only major airport on the island and is located approximately 5 km (3 miles) from the city centre. The most popular car hire company at this airport is Auto Europa. They are well-known for their competitive rates, wide selection of vehicles, and excellent customer service.
- While using car hire in Pantelleria, be aware that pedestrians and cyclists are commonly found in the city centre and the areas of Scauri and Tracino. The road conditions in Pantelleria are generally good, and drivers tend to be courteous. A unique positive aspect of driving here is the opportunity to explore the beautiful coastline and hidden coves at your own pace. With a hired car, you can easily reach places like Gadir Cove and Specchio di Venere Lake, which are not easily accessible by public transport.
- There are no rush hours in Pantelleria, as the island maintains a relaxed pace of life. However, be cautious of narrow and winding roads, especially along SP5, which connects Pantelleria Town to Scauri. Additionally, during the summer months when tourism is high, the road from Pantelleria Town to Kamma becomes congested. One unique issue you may encounter when driving in Pantelleria is the presence of wild capers growing along the roadside, so be cautious to avoid them. While they may seem harmless, encountering them while driving can be potentially dangerous. The thorns can puncture tyres or cause damage to the vehicle.
- Book your rental car in Pantelleria at least 1 day before your trip in order to get a below-average price

However, if you plan to explore the island's rural areas, an SUV would provide better handling on the winding and sometimes uneven roads that lead to picturesque spots like Martingana Cove and Lago di Venere. SP5 is also known as the Tracino-Mursia Road and is a winding route that offers breathtaking views of the countryside but requires careful handling due to its narrow width.
What’s the speed limit in Pantelleria?
The speed limit in Pantelleria is generally 50 km/h (31 mph) within the city limits and 90 km/h (56 mph) on main roads. It is important to pay attention to any posted speed limits while driving. Speed cameras are frequently found in high-risk areas. If caught speeding, penalties may vary depending on the car hire company. For example, Auto Europa has a policy of charging an administrative fee in addition to any fines incurred for speeding violations. It is advisable to adhere to the speed limits to avoid substantial fines.
Where are the best places to park in Pantelleria?
Free parking spaces are generally abundant throughout the city, particularly outside the city centre. Via Tonnara is located near the Tonnara di Pantelleria and offers free parking spaces along the roadside. Via Boccadoro, which is situated on the outskirts of the city centre, provides ample free parking. However, if you prefer to park in the city centre, it is advisable to utilise the available paid car parks. Popular examples include Parcheggio Centro Storico and Parcheggio Piazza Roma.
