Finding a rental car in Moruya is easy with Road Genius. Compare prices from dozens of brands across Australia with no booking fees. You can pick up a vehicle directly from Moruya Airport, but with limited options on-site, booking early is a must. For more choice, it's often worth checking the car hire depots in nearby Batemans Bay.

Saving Tips
- Look beyond the airport. Compare prices in Batemans Bay (a 30-minute drive north) as more competition there can mean better deals and more vehicle choices.
- Timing is everything. If you're visiting during summer or school holidays, book your car months in advance as options are very limited. Visiting in winter? You can often snag a great last-minute deal.
- Play with your rental dates. Sometimes, renting for a full week is cheaper per day than renting for just five days. It's worth checking different rental lengths.
- Avoid high refuelling fees from the rental company. Fill the tank yourself at a local service station right before you drop the car off.

FAQs
Can I pick up a car at Moruya Airport if I'm not arriving by plane?
Yes, but contact the rental provider directly to arrange this, as staff presence is often aligned to flight arrivals.
Do I need a 4WD vehicle for exploring around Moruya?
No, a standard 2WD vehicle is sufficient for most attractions. Only specific beach access points or forest tracks in Deua National Park would benefit from 4WD capabilities.
What happens if I encounter flooding on coastal roads?
Never drive through floodwaters. In heavy rain, check Live Traffic NSW app for road closures and take alternative routes if advised.
Are there any unsealed roads I should be aware of?
Most main attractions are accessible via sealed roads. Some forest roads in Deua National Park and certain beach access points are unsealed. Driving on unsealed or gravel roads is usually restricted or prohibited by rental agreements, even for AWD or 4WD vehicles. Always check your specific contract terms carefully for restrictions.
