$60 Car Rental Los Coquitos

There's loads to do in Los Coquitos, but venture farther afield and you'll find even more magic. Rent a set of wheels and you can meander around the surrounding area at your own pace. Add these fantastic places to your to-do list:

• Puerto Plata is around 110 miles from Los Coquitos. Well-known sights like Playa Dorada should be high on your list while you're in town.
• About 95 miles away, Punta Cana is also a hit with travelers. Make time to take in Bavaro Beach while you're in town. It's one of the reasons people love this colorful city.
• Spend time in the great outdoors and take in the serenity at Las Aguilas Bay. You'll find it about 130 miles from Los Coquitos.

If you don't have a driver's license issued in Dominican Republic, then you may need to get an International Driving Permit (IDP) in your place of residence in order to rent a car. It's also important to note that if an IDP is required, it has no validity on its own. You'll have to show your driver's license from your home country your passport and other forms of identification as well. Lastly, make sure the credit card you used to book the rental vehicle matches the name on your driver's license and passport. Some other things to note to rent a car internationally are:

• Age restrictions: You must be at least 25 in many countries to rent a car. If you're younger than that, it may still be possible to rent a car but you'll have to pay a Young Driver's Surcharge. Additional restrictions may also apply to the types of cars you can rent.
• Driving limitations: Make sure you read the fine print before driving away. Typically, you can't cross country borders, drive on ferries or on off-road areas with your rental car.
