When choosing a car hire in Praia do Carvoeiro, you should think about the type of driving you will do during your stay to pick the right vehicle for you. Larger vehicles, like SUVs or people carriers, are perfect for driving on Portugal’s spacious main roads. Choosing a larger vehicle will also give you plenty of space for hiking and camping equipment. Being high up in a larger car will also give you great views of the area’s stunning coastline. However, if you plan to spend a lot of time in nearby cities, like Faro or Lagos, you may find a smaller vehicle easier to manoeuvre in the old town areas, where the streets are narrower and turns and junctions are tighter.

Motorists should pay close attention to the speed limits when driving in Portugal as speeding fines can be extremely pricey (up to €2,500) and speed cameras are used throughout the country. When you’re driving in Praia do Carvoeiro, you should watch out for local speed limit signs, as these may differ between regions. In general, speed limits in Portugal sit at 50 km/h (30 mph) in urban areas, 90-100 km/h (55-65 mph) on rural roads, and 120 km/h (75 mph) on motorways.

Visitors to Praia do Carvoeiro will find numerous free car parks at coastal beauty spots and in the town itself.
