What do you need to rent a car on Achill Island?
Renting a set of wheels on Achill Island requires a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you opt out of the rental provider's insurance plan, you may need an alternative proof of coverage. Read the terms and conditions of your policy to avoid any hassles at the rental counter.
What side of the road do you drive on on Achill Island?
Achill Island locals stay to the left. Cars are also different here. Steering wheels are on the right side, gearshifts are on your left and controls for the indicators and windshield wipers will probably be in another position.
Can I drive in Achill Island with my U.S. Driver's license?

Where can I find an Achill Island car rental if I am younger than 25?
This often depends on the car rental company you go with on Achill Island. Some may provide vehicles to people aged under 25, but you can expect to be hit with extra charges. If you're between 21 and 24 years, a young driver fee could apply to your booking and you may also be limited to certain car classes. Check the age policy of your chosen outlet and if extra costs apply.
