Top tips for renting a car in Lanzarote
- Driving here is generally going to be quite an easy adventure because there are several main roads that are in good condition making travel on this small island easy. While there can be roads that are a little narrower or maybe not in great shape, generally you will only find these roads in places that tourists don't often visit, and they most likely won't have much traffic on them, making them easy to travel. Because of the good road conditions and generally good weather, there is no need to get any specific type of specialty car, as any vehicle that suits your needs will most likely work well here.
- Because this island is administered by the country of Spain, the child seat laws here mirror those of Spain. What that means for those traveling with children in the car is that children that are up to 15 months old must travel in a rear-facing car seat. After that age and up until four years old, kids need to travel in a forward-facing car seat. Up to six, they need to travel in a booster seat, and then up to 12 on a booster cushion.
- If you plan on taking your rental car into another country, most major rental car companies allow this type of travel. That said because this is an island, any trip into a foreign country is going to start with a ferry trip. There is limited ferry service off of the island, but most major rental car companies need to give their permission before drivers can take a rental car onto a ferry, so make sure you discuss all of your travel plans with your rental car company before you get started.
- Most travelers here are pleasantly surprised by the number of gas stations available on this relatively small island. With that said, most of the gas stations sit along the southern coast of the island, so as you travel into more remote locations on the northern tip of the island or to the northwestern coast to a place like the Timanfaya National Park, make sure you have a full tank, so you do not get stuck somewhere without a gas station.
