Exmouth car hire

Compact cars are ideal for getting around Exmouth and out to the main attractions. Though there are many great four-wheel driving opportunities in the region, most Exmouth car hire companies exclude such activities, so hiring an SUV isn’t generally necessary unless you require the extra room. If you wish to travel off road, you will need to discuss this with the companies offering car hire in Exmouth to see what’s possible.

Around the township of Exmouth, the default speed limit is 50 km/h unless otherwise signed. Around schools and areas with high pedestrian traffic, the speed limit is 40 km/h.

Most of the hotels and resorts in Exmouth provide free on-site parking, and you will find some free council parking in the township.
