Top tips for renting a car in Florida Keys
A very popular type of car that people rent when they visit the Florida Keys is the Jeep. One of the reasons that this is such a popular car is that the Florida Keys is a great part of the world to spend time driving with the top down. It is also a great car because it is perfect for hauling all sorts of gear to all of the outdoor adventures you will probably take part in while you visit the Florida Keys.
There are some specific laws regarding driving with children in a vehicle in Florida. All children that are five years of age or younger must be in a properly secured child restraint device. For children that are three and younger, they must be in a separate car seat attached to the car, and for children that are four or five years old, they can legally ride in just a booster seat. It is important to remember that seatbelt laws in Florida are primary enforcement laws and as such, law enforcement officers can stop you if they view anybody in the car not wearing a seatbelt.
One thing to keep in mind about renting a car in the Florida Keys is that this is a relatively small geographic area and so the number of rental car companies you'll find here can be rather limited. Most of the major chains have a location at the airport in Key West, so if you're looking for a good variety of cars, this is probably your best bet.

FAQs about renting a car in Florida Keys
Should I rent a car in Florida Keys?
While there are some public transportation options available in the Florida Keys, the area of the Florida Keys is so vast that you almost certainly need a car to get around. While you could rent a car in the mainland Florida area and make the drive to the Florida Keys, some people find this drive a little unnerving because of all the time spent over the water. That is why a good option is to rent a car in Key West and then take drives around the area.
What is driving like in Florida Keys?
Driving in the Florida Keys is really the same as driving anywhere in the United States but there are a few rules to keep in mind when you drive here. As with any other state in the United States, people here drive on the right side of the road. When you come to a red light, you can make a right turn as long as you stop first.

How old do you have to be to rent a car in Florida Keys?
When you rent with one of the major rental car chains, you will find different age requirements depending on the type of car you wish to rent.
