Car rental at the Ceduna Airport

Nestled on the pristine coastline of South Australia, Ceduna Airport (CED) opens the door to a charming locale steeped in natural beauty and aboriginal heritage. Although small, the airport is equipped to offer a hassle-free start to your Australian journey.

Ceduna airport has several car rental offices located within its premises. Companies such as Budget, Avis, and Hertz are known for their excellent service. Make sure to compare prices and book in advance for the best deal - remember driving is on the left, just like at home!

Fuel Up Around Ceduna Airport

Before setting off to explore, fill up your tank at one of the two petrol stations near the airport - the Caltex Ceduna and United Ceduna.

Weather & What to Pack

Although South Australia enjoys a Mediterranean climate, Ceduna can be quite hot during the summer months (December - February). Don't forget to pack sun cream and hats, and it's always a good idea to keep a bottle of water in your car.

Currency Considerations

As in other parts of Australia, the currency is the Australian dollar. Nearly all shops, restaurants, and hotels accept credit cards. However, ATMs are readily available at the airport and in the town, should you need to withdraw cash.

English, With an Aussie Twist

While English is spoken in Ceduna, you may encounter Australian slang terms not typically used in the UK. For instance, a "ute" is an Australian term for a pickup truck. It could be an intriguing twist to your rental car experience!

Exploring Beyond Ceduna

Ceduna is just the beginning. You could drive out to the awe-inspiring Flinders Ranges, the vineyards of Barossa Valley, or even onward to the bustling city life of Adelaide. So pick your route, hire your car, and start the journey of a lifetime!
