Some of the most popular cars to hire in Puerto del Carmen are compact cars or economy cars, which are a great choice if you only plan on using the car in urban areas. Vehicles like the Toyota Aygo are perfect for navigating the smaller roads and can make parking easier while boasting air conditioning and a choice of either 3 or 5 doors. Additionally, they're easier to adjust to if you're not used to driving on the right-hand side of the road. An SUV, such as the Nissan Juke, would be ideally suited to you if you want to navigate the mountainous roads that go up to Mirador del Rio in the north of the island or Mount Timanfaya in the west.

It's best not to get a fine when you hire a car in Puerto del Carmen, so pay attention to your speed and check for speed signs.
