Top tips for hiring a car in Nantucket Island

  • Nantucket Island boasts a rich whaling history, gorgeous beaches, and elegant architecture, making it an excellent summer destination. Nantucket Island is a suitable getaway for travelers who are seeking a memorable vacation, including families and couples. The small size of the island doesn’t favor driving. Getting a rental car here is also challenging since car use is quite limited on the island. There are a few car rentals on this island, but you should also consider renting a car off the island’s coast and then using the ferry to bring the vehicle to Nantucket Island. Alternatively, you can get a rental car at the neighboring Hyannis Airport and then have your vehicle transported to the island via ferry.
  • Anyone bringing a rental car to Nantucket should know whether the rental vehicles are permitted on the island. First off, there aren’t any causeways or bridges to Nantucket Island that drivers can use to access the island. There are also no highways on the island like there are in other places. That’s why there are certain places you can drive on the island. These places include roads that serve the island’s beach towns, including 40th Pole, Nobadeer Beach, Low Beach, and Smith’s Point. Drivers have to seek driving permits before driving to other areas across the island. Thus, check with the island’s local authority to know the exact places you should tour with a rental car.
  • Anyone driving to Nantucket Island must understand the driving rules and regulations. For instance, all drivers renting vehicles on the island shouldn’t go to beach areas unless they have a driving permit. Thus, check if your car rental company has permits that allow you to drive in these areas.
  • Visitors can’t drive just any type of rental car on Nantucket Island due to strict driving restrictions. Anyone wanting to visit the island should be aware of the specific vehicle restrictions.

You can also use other smaller rental cars if you have a limited travel budget.
  • Medium rental cars in Nantucket Island are around 50% cheaper than other car types, on average
