Getting Out & About From Ballina

SIXT rental cars Ballina gives you access to some of the most beautiful areas in Australia! Pick up your preferred set of wheels at SIXT’s kiosk and hit the road. If you’re staying in Ballina itself, the drive from the airport is really easy and well sign-posted. If you’re staying in Lennox Head or nearby Byron Bay, you’ll want to pick up the Pacific Highway heading north, right out of the airport. Both popular destinations are within a 20 minute drive!

There is so much to do in Ballina, right at the very edge of New South Wales and Queensland. Of course, you have all the excitement, brunch spots and beautiful retailers you could possibly want in Byron, but if you’re on the hunt for a quieter beach, take your hire car down to East or South Ballina. The latter is a huge stretch of stunning white sand that you can drive right down to. This stretch of coastline is a great place to spot whales during their migrating season - so keep your eyes peeled!

From Ballina, you can also head inland to explore quaint, characteristic towns like Bangalow or Eureka. Pack your hiking boots and get out to explore some of Australia’s biggest single-drop waterfalls, including Minyon Falls. If you’re travelling with kids, why not check out summerland farm, just 15 minutes drive west of Ballina. You also can’t miss out on the opportunity to tick off a firm favourite from the ‘big things’ list,

to get more information about the Big Things Road Trip!

Optional Extras With Ballina Car Hire

Whether you’re starting an exciting journey with

, or you are local to the area, all customers can enjoy SIXT’s above and beyond service, including some optional extras that just make travelling - or planning a busy day - that little bit easier.

It’s hard enough to get kids through the airport or packed and prepped for a road trip. Book baby and child seats when you reserve your Ballina rental car, just to cross one extra thing off your list. You can have the peace of mind that everyone is able to travel safely and securely, with child seats that are already fitted into your car when you pick it up. If you are exploring somewhere new, you might also be interested in reserving a GPS for your rental, if the vehicle you opt for doesn’t already have it built in. Again, this is just a small extra that means you don’t have to carry something else in your luggage and can be confident whilst you’re driving, whether your trip is taking you out to the Tropical North or simply exploring the hinterland.

In some instances, SIXT will also be able to support our customers by providing packing materials and equipment when they are moving home! We know this is always a stressful time and will do anything we can to help, including flexible hire terms and those little extras that make a difference to your day.

Great friendly service at Ballina airport. Gave us a lift to the rental collection place and allowed airport drop off. Car (corolla) was great with satnav, good airconditioning. The team also responded to any concerns or questions about the vehicle.

I recently used SIXT truck rentals in Ballina and had a fantastic experience. The process of collecting the truck was incredibly easy, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The vehicle itself was of top quality, clean, and well-maintained, which made my moving process smooth and efficient. Plus, the rental was great value for money compared to other options I researched. Additionally, I felt assured knowing that my car was safe when left overnight next to their facilities. Overall, I highly recommend SIXT truck rentals in Ballina for anyone in need of a reliable and hassle-free moving solution.
