Way better than a rental car

Lose your cares in Long Beach

If you’re looking for a peaceful, romantic getaway, you can’t do better than Long Beach: a prime oceanfront location that's one of the most popular in the U.S. Home to a wealth of museums, shops, and seafood eateries, this seaside town on the edge of Los Angeles is well-places to enjoy everything Southern California has to offer.

Explore the Little Italy of SoCal in the beautiful Naples Island neighborhood, tour a fancy ocean liner, or simply relax on the heavenly beaches this city is so famous for.

Known for its restful beaches, Long Beach is also a prime location for nightlife, aquariums, and museums.

Downtown Waterfront

Whether you end up stopping at its many attractions, including the Aquarium of the Pacific and Shoreline Village, or simply strolling along the harbor, Long Beach’s downtown waterfront is a must-see. Be sure to make a reservation at one of the waterfront’s top-tier seafood restaurants.

Aquarium of the Pacific

The Aquarium of the Pacific holds 50 exhibits and 11,000 animals, which makes it the largest aquarium in Southern California. Don’t miss the famous penguin habitat and the Moon Jelly Touch Lab. You can even sign up for a special animal encounter if you so choose.

The Queen Mary

In its day, The Queen Mary was the fanciest ocean liner ever to cruise the Pacific Ocean. Now retired from carrying thousands of passengers, this grand vessel functions as a museum docked permanently in Long Beach. Return after sunset for dinners, tours, and paranormal investigations.

Rent cars in Long Beach, CA

Hit the road

Its central location in Orange County makes Long Beach a great home base for day trips to some of California’s biggest thrills. From Disneyland and Hollywood to Surf City (aka Huntington Beach), you can find adventures of every size and shape if you simply head out along the shoreline or into the hills.

Way better than a rental car

Disneyland

While the Happiest Place on Earth may call for more than a day trip, you can’t ignore the fact that Disneyland and California Adventure are only about a half-hour drive from Long Beach. The best part? After a day of crowds and lines, you can return to your peaceful Long Beach home away from home.

Hollywood

After Disneyland, California’s most iconic site may be Hollywood, and this classic tourist destination is only about a 40-minute drive from Long Beach. Explore the Hollywood Walk of Fame, TCL Chinese Theatre, and glitzy Hollywood Boulevard as you stroll around the city of stars.

Huntington Beach

There’s a reason nearby Huntington Beach is nicknamed Surf City. With some of the best waves in Southern California, it’s also home to the International Surfing Museum, which details the history of surfing, and the laid-back Huntington Beach Pier. In other words, it’s a surfer’s paradise.

Best Long Beach driving roads

Purple squiggle

Hilltop Park

With 360 views of Long Beach, the summit of Hilltop Park is the perfect location to snap photos, enjoy a spectacular picnic, or hike in the fresh mountain air. And the drive to the top is equally delightful, with great views all the way up.

North 73

Some of the toll roads around Long Beach offer the best views in the area. Fuel up with a tank of gas, and after you pass the toll plaza on North 73, you can enjoy views of dreamy Santa Catalina Island, Long Beach’s bright downtown waterfront, and more scenic sights all the way to Anaheim.

Vincent Thomas Bridge

Connecting Long Beach and San Pedro, this classic suspension bridge may be a bit narrow, but its panoramic city views more than make up for its compact size. Part of the Seaside Freeway, it also offers stunning views of Los Angeles Harbor.

Frequently asked questions in Long Beach

What are the requirements to book a car on Turo?

To book a car on Turo, you must create a Turo account, be 18 years old or older with a valid driver’s license, and get approved to drive on Turo. When you’re booking your first trip, you’ll go through a quick approval process by entering your driver’s license and some other information. In most cases, you’ll get approved immediately, and you’ll be set for future road trips, business trips, and family vacations!

Do I need my own insurance?

No, you don’t need personal insurance coverage to rent a car on Turo.

In the US, any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your Turo protection plan. When booking a car in the US, you’ll choose between three protection plans — Premier (eligibility requirements apply), Standard, or Minimum — to get the level of protection that’s right for you. On each trip, you’re covered with third-party automobile liability insurance provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company.*

In New York state, you’ll also choose between Premier (if available), Standard, or Minimum. With each plan, you’re covered with liability insurance of $1,250,000.* Protection plans for New York trips also include access to roadside assistance, priority phone support, and 24/7 customer assistance.

Are there discounts on weekly or monthly trips?

Yes, many Turo hosts offer discounted prices when you book trips lasting 3+, 7+, or 30+ days, so you can get the best deals and lowest rates possible by booking longer trips.

What types of cars can I book in Long Beach?

Browse a wide selection of vehicles for all kinds of occasions and budgets on Turo. Find a full-size SUV for a family road trip, a pickup truck for some errands, or a sporty convertible for a special night out in Long Beach. For the lowest prices, use the “budget-friendly” filter to browse economy vehicles.

How can I drive unlimited miles during my trip to Long Beach?

Some hosts offer unlimited distance for a trip; others set a daily distance limit. On the vehicle pages, you’ll see the total miles or kilometres you’re allowed to drive under the heading “Distance included.” You can find cars offering unlimited mileage with every trip by using the “Unlimited distance” filter.

What payment methods does Turo accept?

Turo accepts most credit cards issued by major financial institutions, including American Express and Discover cards, as well as debit cards with a Visa or Mastercard logo that are linked to a checking account.

Apple Pay and Google Pay on mobile devices are also accepted, but Turo does not accept cash or checks as valid payment methods.

What is the cancellation policy for guests on Turo?

You can cancel and get a full refund up to 24 hours before your trip starts, unless you opt to receive a non-refundable trip discount when you book. If you book a trip with less than 24 hours’ notice, you have one hour after booking to cancel free of charge. If you cancel after the free cancellation period ends, you will be charged a cancellation fee.

In the rare event a host cancels, you’ll be notified immediately so you can book another car, or we’ll help you find one. Your refund can be temporarily held to expedite rebooking, or the funds can be returned to your bank account — your choice.

What are the cleaning and safety policies on Turo?

Under the enhanced cleaning policy, hosts are required to clean and disinfect their vehicles thoroughly before every trip, so you can feel safe and comfortable behind the wheel. Turo hosts have access to training materials on enhanced cleaning practices, using the latest recommendations compiled from the CDC, EPA, WHO, and vehicle detailing experts, to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

Is Turo a rental car company?

No. Unlike rental car companies, Turo is a peer-to-peer car sharing marketplace where you can book directly from trusted local car owners in the US, Canada, and the UK. Turo does not own any vehicles — Turo hosts share their own personal cars and set their own prices, discounts, vehicle availability, and delivery options.

Are there cars available near the Long Beach airport?

Yes, there are hundreds of cars available on Turo at airport locations in Long Beach. After arriving at the Long Beach Airport, Los Angeles Airport, or Santa Ana Airport, skip the rental counter and have your car rental alternative delivered for pick-up and dropoff at your Long Beach hotel or the address of your vacation rental to save time and hassle.

Is there a fee to add an additional driver to my trip?

There is no fee or extra charge for adding an additional driver to your trip on Turo. Only the guest who booked the trip (primary driver) can request to add drivers; Turo hosts cannot do it for you. We encourage you to request to add authorized drivers before your trip starts, though guests in the US and Canada can request to add a driver while a trip is in progress with no extra charges.

To speed up the process, have your additional driver create a Turo account and get approved to drive before you request to add them. All drivers must have a valid driver’s license and meet the age requirements for the car you’ve booked. You can request to add drivers via the “Trips” tab in the Turo app without additional driver charges or extra costs.

What types of sports cars, luxury cars, or exotics can I book in Long Beach?

You can find nearly endless options for sports cars, luxury cars, and high-performance exotics on Turo. Filter your search by category, vehicle type, or vehicle make to refine your results, or try the “Deluxe Class” and “Super Deluxe Class” filters to browse high-end luxury car rental alternatives near Long Beach.
