How old do you have to be to rent a car in Dana Point?

What do you need to rent a car in Dana Point?
Any rental company you choose will require two things --- a valid driver's license and a credit card in your name. If you want to opt out of the supplier's insurance plan, proof of other coverage may also be needed. Read your policy thoroughly so you know what to bring when it's time to pick up your ride.

Where can I find a Dana Point car rental if I am younger than 25?
You'll need to look up the age policy of the Dana Point rental providers you're interested in. If you're under the age of 25, be mindful that some will charge extra fees. It's ideal to know about this in advance so you can tailor your budget accordingly. Every rental car company has its own rules for younger drivers, so be sure to do your research.
What insurance should I choose for my car rental in Dana Point?
