Vilamoura car hires from €17

A compact economy vehicle is ideal for trips to and from the beach and exploring the local area. If you plan on venturing off the beaten track, a 4x4 may be better suited to the hilly tracks and rough terrain. Of course, you can opt for a convertible and fit right in with the stylish Vilamoura crowd.

In built-up areas of town, the speed limit tends to be 50km/h (30mph), although it may be lower in some areas and/or during roadworks, so keep an eye out for signs. In less developed areas, a 90km/h (55mph) limit normally applies and on motorways, it’s the national limit of 120km/h (75mph).

Finding a spot to park your car can be expensive and somewhat of a challenge in Vilamoura, particularly if you want to get close to the beach. The parking lot at Falésia beach is ideal if you can get there early. It’s shaded and costs around €11.60 (£10.00) for the day. In the centre of town, on-street parking is difficult, so you’re usually better off parking around the Marina and taking the 15-20min walk in.

On average a car hire in Vilamoura costs €14 per day.
