St. Augustine car rental experiences: the best tips from KAYAK users
Insights shared by verified travelers who rented a car in St. Augustine
I hadn't realized that if you choose whatever the least expensive car available is--a 'mystery car,' rental companies now reserve electric vehicles for that option. I was relieved Agent Romy offered me a hybrid instead. Although it seemed very peculiar to start a car that had no sound, I'm not sure I understand how I would have been expected to charge an all-electric vehicle for the time I rented the car. Honestly, an electric vehicle for rent is not a viable option for most people.

Don't penny Pinch on a vehicle when you have a long trip ahead of you. Comfort far outweighs gas milage.

I lived in St. Augustine for nearly 11 years. Learning the alternate routes saves time and anxiety on heavy traffic holiday weekends.
KAYAK’s top tips for renting a car in St. Augustine
With car rentals in St. Augustine, it’s easy to go anywhere you need to both within the city and the larger region. While the town does have basic public transportation, St. Augustine car rentals remain one of the easiest ways to move between neighborhoods. Having your own vehicle will also make it simple for you to go to places that are a bit further from downtown St. Augustine, such as Fort Mose Historic State Park, which is around a 15min drive away. There is also the Davenport Park, which is approximately a 12min drive from the city center.
One convenient and efficient place to secure St. Augustine car rentals is the Jacksonville International Airport (JAX), located about an hour north of St. Augustine. Rental car counters can be found on the Lower Level of this single-terminal airport, next to the baggage claim. Agencies at JAX include Avis, Enterprise, Hertz, Budget, Thrifty, Dollar, Alamo, and National. You can collect and drop off your rental vehicle on the first floor of the parking garage next to the terminal.
If you’ll be flying into the area, picking up car rentals in St. Augustine directly from Northeast Florida Regional Airport (UST) can be a convenient choice. Northeast Florida Regional Airport hosts several car rental companies on-site, and their offices can be found near baggage claim in the main terminal. Some of the companies that can be found here include Avis, Hertz, and Enterprise.
When you opt for cheap car rentals in St. Augustine, you have the freedom to explore Florida's beaches and the great outdoors at the Osceola Wildlife Management Area, less than 2 hours to the northwest. You can take a 45-minute drive to Jacksonville, rated by Forbes as the second-best city in Florida. St. Augustine car rentals can also get you to Daytona Beach in an hour, where you can enjoy sun, sand, and world-famous auto-racing.
When driving car rentals in St. Augustine, it’s important that you read up on local driving laws and tips so you can operate your vehicle as responsibly and safely as possible. Downtown St. Augustine is quite busy and has many pedestrians, so drive with extra caution when you are in this area. In the state of Florida, there is a mandatory child restraint law for passengers under 16 years of age. Whenever you are using your windshield wipers, make sure that you have your headlights on as well.
In Florida, children five years old and younger must be restrained in a federally approved child restraint device. If you need to add on a child, infant, or booster seat to your St. Augustine car rental, make sure that you mention this when you make your vehicle reservation. Cheap car rentals in St. Augustine often have a certain number of car seats available, and if you wait until you pick up your rental to mention that you need a car seat, there may not be any available for your use.
To avoid getting caught in a traffic jam, try not to drive during rush hour, which usually falls between the hours of 7:00 and 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 and 7:00 p.m. There are some roads that are known for having a particular amount of traffic, and these include Coquina Boulevard and A Street. Pay extra caution when driving in the rain, as the roads tend to be more slick and dangerous during these conditions.
Large rental cars in St. Augustine are around 24% cheaper than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in St. Augustine?
If you will be visiting St. Augustine during the warmer months and you want to take advantage of the weather, consider renting a convertible. Otherwise, individuals that will be mainly in the city center may find an economy vehicle to be convenient for the area, as a smaller model makes it easier to navigate the busy downtown. If you plan on going to the beach or enjoying some recreational activities, a large SUV can be a nice choice as you will have plenty of room for carrying any necessary equipment.
How old do I have to be to rent a car in St. Augustine?
To rent a car in Florida, you need to be at least 21 years of age. While you are allowed to rent a car when you are ages 21 through 24, you will most likely be charged a daily fee for being a Young Driver. Usually drivers 25 years old and older are not subject to this kind of fee.
What’s the speed limit in St. Augustine?
Within the city limits, the speed limit for each road typically falls between 20 and 50 mph. Rural roads in the air may have a speed limit that is between 55 and 65 mph. When you are driving on the freeway, you will usually have a speed limit within the range of 45 and 70 mph.
Do I need to sign up for the rental car company’s toll program?
Doing so is probably in your best interest because you will almost certainly need to drive on toll roads in and around St. Augustine. Most Florida toll booths take a picture of your license plate in order to charge you electronically. Because the license plate is registered to the rental car company, the charge will go back to them, even if you are using your own SunPass. If you have not signed up and paid for the rental car company’s toll program, you will probably be charged for the tolls plus a fine. To avoid unwarranted expenses such as this, you should consider signing up for the toll program when you rent from St. Augustine car rentals.
Where are the best places to park in St. Augustine?
One of the largest parking areas in St. Augustine is the Historic Downtown Parking Facility, which can hold more than 1,200 vehicles and which charges fares by the hour and day. There is also a large amount of metered street parking that visitors can take advantage of. Keep in mind that street parking is free after 5:00 p.m. every day and all day on Sundays and federal holidays. In downtown St. Augustine, you will find a variety of paid lots that are centrally located. The city has its own smartphone app that allows you to see where space is available and even pay in advance.

Agent Romy at location V8Z was exceptionally helpful. He was patient enough to educate me on my first experience with a hybrid vehicle and again when I had to extend my rental. I needed a vehicle while waiting for a new engine in my own car--a very stressful situation. Romy made it much easier for me. Thank you. I work for a car repair shop; I'll be referring anyone who needs a rental to you.

I arrived at Avis at 12:45pm and the counter was closed and no one was there. The sign said they should have been open until 1pm. I was unable to pick up my reservation. I instead had to book a same-day rental at a location 45 minutes north.
