KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in Kyrenia
- Getting car hire in Kyrenia will allow you to freely explore the town and others in North Cyprus in your own time and on your own schedule. You won't be reliant on public transport to travel to tourist highlights, and you'll be able to easily reach places that the public transport network doesn't serve. You can visit the dramatic mountain castle of Saint Hilarion or drive to the 13th-century ruins of the Bellapais Monastery, as two examples.
- Furthermore, you can very easily organise car hire in Kyrenia at Ercan International Airport (ECN), which is the main one serving northern Cyprus. It's near Tymbou village, about a 40-minute drive from Kyrenia. The airport doesn't have a car hire centre; instead, the various brands' kiosks are either in the terminal building, or in the A8 Car Park just beyond the airport exit gate. In either case, this car park is where you'll collect your vehicle once the admin is done at the kiosk.
- If you're considering booking car hire in Kyrenia, here are a few things to note. First off, there's a major difference between driving here inside and outside the mid-year European holiday season. The roads can be almost empty outside peak tourist times, and thronged with visitors in season. When the town is busy, look out for groups of tourists on foot, and be prepared to slow down as they will often presume right of way. Lastly, the drink-drive limit is just under 50 mg/100 ml of blood, which is notably lower than in England.
- There are a few minor difficulties when driving in Kyrenia. The first is that you can often be held up at the three peak times. Morning rush hour is from about 07:30-08:00, and in the evenings it's from around 18:00-19:00. There's another around siesta time, from roughly 13:00-15:00. Most of this traffic is on the road from Kyrenia to Alsancak, which is where the most popular beaches are. Also avoid roads leading into the mountains at this time of day – if you're planning a road trip, leave earlier for a smooth journey.
- Book your car hire in Kyrenia at least 3 days before your trip in order to get a below-average price
- Economy car hire in Kyrenia are around 44% cheaper than other car types, on average

What type of car is recommended for driving in Kyrenia?
The roads in the town and on the main roads are in relatively good condition, so if you're sticking to them, all you'll need is a saloon, or a smaller city car if you're by yourself. Families can choose whatever suits their size requirements, be that a larger saloon or an SUV. However, if you intend to venture off the main roads, it's a good idea to get something with a bit more grunt and traction to cope with the steep and winding roads in the region. In this case, consider an MPV or a 4WD as your Kyrenia car hire choice.
What's the speed limit in Kyrenia?
In built-up and populated districts of Kyrenia the speed limit is 65 km/h (about 40 mph), while on rural roads you can drive at up to 80 km/h (about 50 mph). However, be careful at junctions in the town, as the speed limit often lowers to 50 km/h (about 30 mph) for a short stretch as you approach them. There are plenty of fixed speed cameras keeping an eye on the roads, with signs warning you of them. Any fine you incur will be sent to your hire car company and added to your bill.
Where are the best places to park in Kyrenia?
You can find free parking on Sertac Sevim Kalebey Sk, the road that leads to the Girne Castle. Otherwise, head to the car park at St. Andrew's church. In the centre of town, there are a few car parks, including Leftkosia Car Park on Ziya Rızkı Cd, and Amathus Car Park on Cengizhanlı Sk. All of these charge in the region of around €1.00 (90p) to about €1.40 (£1.20) for the whole day, so there's really no need to drive around looking for free parking if you can't find any immediately.
