KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in La Ciotat

  • If you're planning a trip to La Ciotat, the charming coastal city in France, and want to explore the area conveniently, consider La Ciotat car hire. Hiring a car offers numerous advantages, allowing you to make the most of your visit to this picturesque destination. With your own wheels, you'll be free to venture beyond the city centre, and access beautiful attractions like the Calanques National Park and the stunning Cassis village with its cliffs and beaches. Additionally, a hire car allows you to conveniently visit attractions like the Eden Theatre and Mugel Park within the city, maximising your time and experience.
  • When arriving at either Marseille Airport (MRS), about 60 km (37 miles) away, or Toulon Hyeres Airport (TLN), around 50 km (30 miles), consider car hire in La Ciotat for a seamless and convenient journey. At both airports, you'll find reputable car hire offices within terminals 1 and 2, ensuring easy access upon arrival. Complimentary airport shuttles are available to transport passengers between terminals, eliminating any potential hassles in reaching the car hire offices. With the well-established car hire service at these airports, you can quickly embark on your La Ciotat exploration with a reliable and well-maintained vehicle, making your experience flawlessly enjoyable.
  • Driving in La Ciotat offers a pleasant experience, but like any city, there are things to remember. The roads in the city centre can be narrow, so extra caution is advised while manoeuvring through tight spots. Keep a watchful eye on pedestrians, as jaywalking is common. Moreover, adhering to local traffic rules and the city's standard speed limit of 50 km/h (31 mph) ensures a safe and enjoyable driving experience. Some of the traffic rules to remember while driving in La Ciotat includes traffic drives on the right-hand side of the road, seat belts are mandatory for all passengers in the vehicle, and it is illegal to use handheld mobile phones while driving, so use a hands-free system if necessary.
  • As you plan your trip in La Ciotat using a hire car, be mindful of peak traffic times to ensure a smooth driving experience. Rush hours, primarily during the morning (around 7:30 to 9:00) and evening (around 17:00 to 18:30), can lead to congestion on major routes into the city and coastal roads. Highways A50 and D559 are most affected, resulting in potential delays. Additionally, during winter, which occurs between December and February, the city and its surrounding areas experience colder temperatures, occasional snow, and rainfall in some regions. So staying informed about weather conditions is crucial for safe driving.
  • Compact hire cars in La Ciotat are around 35% cheaper than other car types, on average

Within the town and on urban roads, like those in La Ciotat's city centre, the speed limit is set at 50 km/h (31 mph) to ensure safety and smoother traffic flow. However, it's crucial to remain attentive to specific zones where speed limits vary, especially near schools or residential areas. So, keep an eye out for signage, exercise caution, and be mindful of speed cameras while enjoying your car hire adventure.

  • Where are the best places for parking with car hire in La Ciotat?

    For convenient parking in La Ciotat, consider areas outside the city centre to avoid congestion. Using public transport or walking to access central attractions is recommended. However, several paid parking spaces are available if you prefer parking within the city. The average hourly parking fees range from €1.50 to €2.50 (approximately £1.30 to £2.20), while daily rates are around €10 to €15 (approximately £8.70 to £13.00). Keep some coins handy for parking meters, or use the pay-by-phone option if available for smooth car hire parking.
