KAYAK’s top tips for hiring a car in St Kilda
- Hire a car in St Kilda to cruise along the coast of Port Phillip Bay and around sections of the famous Grand Prix track at Albert Park Lake. Many tourists and commuters pack the iconic trams that pass through St Kilda, meaning getting around by hire car is a far more enjoyable experience. Driving also makes it a lot easier to pack everything you’ll need for a day at the beach or Luna Park. Driving a hire car also saves you valuable time in getting around the major attractions. It’s possible to reach the Mornington Peninsula in 50min by car; however, a combination of trains and buses requires closer to 2h.
- Reception offices of hire companies at Melbourne International Airport (MEL) are located on the ground floor of the T123 Car Park. Situated directly opposite Terminal 2, the car hire facility can be reached by a short 5min walk from Terminal 1, 2 or 3. No shuttles are required for companies with branches located on airport grounds, though companies including Ace Rental Cars and Alpha deliver transfer vans to the Off Airport Pick-up Area, two lanes across from Terminal 2.
- Trams travel through the heart of St Kilda and drivers must be careful not to obstruct their path. U-turns are prohibited on roads with tram lines unless signage indicates they are allowed, while drivers must not pass trams as they approach stops, to ensure the safety of pedestrians boarding and disembarking. Beaconsfield Pde and other roads close to the St Kilda foreshore attract plenty of cyclists. Keep an eye on blind spots as bikes can appear suddenly, and drive cautiously through roundabouts and intersections.
- Peak-hour traffic is most severe between 07:00–09:30 and 15:30–19:00. St Kilda Rd is most affected and drivers should expect significant delays travelling in both directions during these periods. The intersection of Punt Rd and Queens Rd attracts congestion throughout the day and should be avoided unless it is critical for reaching your destination. Bright sun can make for glary driving conditions during summer months in St Kilda and it’s important to pack sunglasses and utilise the visors of your hire car.
