What do you need to rent a car in Santa Cruz?
Before you can hit the road in Santa Cruz, you’ll need a driver’s license and a credit card in the same name.

Where can I find a Santa Cruz car rental if I am younger than 25?
This will depend on the rental car companies operating in Santa Cruz. They often have different age policies. If you’ve found an outlet that does cater to drivers under 25, take note that extra fees may apply. Do some research into what those charges could be before booking your rental.
