Top tips for renting a car in Fort Lauderdale
Renting a car in Fort Lauderdale? You’re in for a treat. Here, car rental isn’t just a way to get around — it’s the start of your adventure. Fort Lauderdale car rentals are the key to cruising through this South Florida playground with style and ease. Here’s what you need to know to navigate like a local (or at least like you’ve been here before).
What are the road rules and driving conditions in Fort Lauderdale?
Florida drivers have a unique approach to the road, and Fort Lauderdale is no exception. While speed limits vary by zone, typically 30 mph in residential areas and 70 mph on highways, always keep an eye out for sudden stops (think iguanas, peacocks, and traffic lights that come out of nowhere). And remember, those classic evening rush hour slowdowns can pop up anywhere, anytime, so don’t be surprised if your rental car gets cozy with a lot of red lights on Las Olas Boulevard.
Where can I park in Fort Lauderdale?
Finding a parking spot can feel like winning the lottery, but once you master it, you’re golden. Public parking garages are conveniently located near popular destinations like the beach at 200 E. Las Olas Circle and downtown at 101 SW 5th Ave, with rates generally around $1–3 per hour.
Watch for “resident-only” zones, especially near Fort Lauderdale Beach — getting ticketed in paradise isn’t the best souvenir. If you’re aiming for more than a quick stop, try the airport location for longer-term parking, perfect if you’re taking a detour to Miami Beach or Bonnet House Museum.
Are there toll roads in Fort Lauderdale?
Florida loves toll roads almost as much as it loves palm trees, and in Fort Lauderdale, you’ll likely run into one or two. Routes like the Florida Turnpike and nearby expressways do charge tolls, so have a plan. We recommend going cashless, so you can get where you need to be fast.
Where are there gas stations and EV chargers in Fort Lauderdale?
Fueling up your rental car in Fort Lauderdale is no sweat. Gas stations are everywhere, from bustling downtown areas like along the S Federal Highway, or quieter areas like NE 4th Ave.
For EV drivers, there are plenty of chargers around NE 3rd Ave with more charging stations in other parts of town, including charging options at hotels like the W Fort Lauderdale and shopping centers like The Galleria.
Do I need to rent a car in Fort Lauderdale?
If you want to really see Fort Lauderdale, a rental car is your best bet. Public transport can get you around, but nothing beats the freedom of going at your own pace, especially if you’re hopping between Fort Lauderdale Beach, Everglades National Park, and local gems. Plus, with Turo, you’re looking at the cheapest price options with maximum flexibility — meaning you get to save money while exploring in style.
