Playa Blanca car hires from £15/day

You have free choice of car hire in Playa Blanca given that it’s so easy to get around with the relative lack of traffic, as long as you drive carefully and take the cycling culture into consideration all the time. The roads are good so you can get any kind of car, from a city car to a sports model. You’re probably best off with an SUV, however, as that will allow you to get around easily both in the built-up areas and on the rural roads where you might want to venture off the beaten track.

The speed limit in central Playa Blanca and in the residential areas is kept really low, at 20km/h (about 12mph), precisely because of all the cyclists.

On the country roads the speed limit increases to 80km/h (about 50mph) and once you’re on the dual carriageways on the island it goes up to 100km/h (just above 60mph).

There aren’t any significant car parks in many parts of the town, but that shouldn’t concern you too much as all on-street parking is free. The only challenge will be finding a parking spot close to your destination, but nothing is outside of easy walking distance in the town.
