Our Alicante Airport car hire makes discovering the province of Alicante, and the Valencia region of Spain, easy. Our range, from economy class vehicles to premium convertibles, are made for roaming the city’s downtown area, while SUVs and coupes are great for traversing the rugged terrain outside city limits.
We offer a variety of extras including child seats, sat nav, additional drivers, prepaid fuel, and a choice of manual or automatic transmission vehicles. We also provide winter equipment upon request for safe travels during cold weather.
Hire car pick-up: The SIXT Alicante-Elche Airport (ALC) car hire branch is located at the airport’s car hire centre. After Landing, proceed to the service-point area to collect your vehicle. Take the escalator or elevator down to the parking garage. Walk along the footbridge towards Exit B to Parking Level 4. Make a right turn and walk directly ahead to the SIXT desk where a staff member will assist you.
Hire car drop-off: Returning your car is just as convenient. Use Parking Level 4 and locate one of SIXT’s clearly marked spots. Leave the keys in the drop box next to the office for 24-hour return flexibility.
Driving tips: While enjoying the scenic drives, remember these helpful driving tips for a smoother journey. Familiarize yourself with Spain’s road laws, such as driving on the right side of the road, yielding at roundabouts, and observing speed limits (50 km/h in cities, 90 km/h on rural roads).
Parking: Public parking lots and underground garages are readily available in Alicante city centre, but street parking can be limited.
Fuelling: Fuel up at easily accessible gas stations in and around Alicante before heading to your next destination.
Situated in the heart of Costa Blanca overlooking the Mediterranean, Alicante is famous as a summer destination for the many beaches and islands that dot its coastline. Further inland, the city centre presents historical landmarks such as the Castle of Santa Barbara which overlooks the city itself and the Basilica of St. Mary with its Baroque façade. Take a trip out in your SIXT car to San Juan Beach then enjoy an excursion to Benidorm, about 40 mins away by car.
