To rent a car in Turkey, you generally need a valid driving license from your home country, a passport, and a credit card in the main driver's name. An International Driving Permit (IDP) is highly recommended, especially if your license is not in English or does not use the Latin alphabet. The minimum age for car rental is typically 21 years, with some companies requiring drivers to be 23 or 25 for certain car classes. A minimum of 1-2 years of driving experience is also commonly required.

Trafik kuralları ve cezalar

In Turkey, driving is on the right side of the road. Speed limits are generally 50 km/h in urban areas, 90 km/h on rural roads, and 120 km/h on motorways, unless otherwise indicated. The legal alcohol limit for drivers is very strict, practically zero (0.05% BAC, but it's safest to avoid alcohol entirely if driving). Headlights must be used in tunnels and during periods of poor visibility. Seatbelts are mandatory for all occupants, and child seats are required for children up to 12 years old or under 1.35 meters tall.

Otopark

In Polis, parking is generally easier to find than in larger cities. There are designated parking areas, often free, especially near the main square and Latchi Harbour. Some private car parks or busier areas might charge a small fee. Always look for signs indicating parking restrictions or payment requirements.

Benzin istasyonları

Fuel stations are readily available in and around Polis and along main roads. Both unleaded petrol (kurşunsuz benzin) and diesel (motorin) are common. LPG (otogaz) is also available at many stations. Fuel prices are regulated by the government and are generally similar across the region. Payments can usually be made with cash or credit/debit cards.

Hangi aracı seçmeli

For exploring Polis and the relatively well-maintained roads of the Akamas Peninsula, a compact or economy car is often sufficient and easier to maneuver and park. If you plan to venture onto unpaved tracks within the national park (where permitted) or desire more comfort for longer drives, an SUV with higher ground clearance would be a better choice. Manual transmission cars are more common, but automatics are widely available.
