Hire Options in Hervey Bay

SIXT stocks a full fleet of hire cars in Hervey Bay, whether at our airport location or directly in the town centre. This includes a great selection of EVs for hire. These are a great option for getting out and exploring this beautiful part of Queensland and whilst they are kinder to the environment, they are also kinder on your wallet - SIXT customers save money on fuel with free access to ChargeFox power stations. That’s basically free fuel!

Of course, there are plenty of eco-friendly models to choose from, such as Teslas or BMWs, so you’re sure to still be driving in style. If you need something with a little more luggage space, check out our SUVs and 4X4s. Customers with a lot of luggage, or travelling in a small group, may find these slightly larger options just a little more comfortable.

As well as cars, SIXT also offers vehicles from our commercial fleet. This means if you need access to a truck, ute, van or even mini-bus, we can help you out. Our commercial vehicles are popular with local businesses and larger groups of travellers, but are commonly used as moving trucks - whether you’re staying local or heading out of town, SIXT can help you out.

Getting out & about in Hervey Bay

Hervey Bay is a picturesque town, 3 and a half hours north of Brisbane. It’s small, with a great community vibe and very laid back atmosphere. Picking up a hire car in Hervey Bay, you’ll already be in the heart of the town but with access to your own wheels you can travel freely to all this area has to offer.

Hervey Bay is probably best known for its world-renowned whale watching season. From June through to September, hundreds of humpback whales can be spotted in the shallower waters just outside the bay. It’s worth bearing in mind that the town is busier and hire cars in Hervey Bay get booked up quickly during this time!

Another popular reason to visit the area is its access to Fraser Island (K’gari), just south of Hervey Bay via Ferry. Remember, to visit the island you must have a suitable, 4x4 vehicle. Most travellers prefer to opt for a guided tour.

With your hire car, you can head out of Hervey Bay for the day and head down to Noosa, or inland to explore the incredible national parks and state forests. These are popular areas for hiking and camping.

Optional Extras

Hiring a car with SIXT means that our customers always get to enjoy our ‘above and beyond’ approach to service. Not only will we try to accommodate any request with our flexible hire terms, but we also like to be able to provide those little extras that make your day just a little bit better.

For travellers, we offer baby seats and booster chairs. These are particularly popular for those picking up their hire car at Hervey Bay airport as it reduces the amount of luggage you have to carry on the plane! It also provides that little extra peace of mind, knowing your little ones will always be travelling safely and securely. Also for your comfort, we can also supply GPS systems if the car you choose does not have them fitted or built-in as standard. This just makes navigating new roads even easier.

For those hiring commercial vehicles, we are able to supply equipment to help you load and unload the vehicles you hire. This can take a lot of the hassle out of moving home, or even just your day at work. For DIY movers, we are sometimes also able to supply moving and packing materials.

You can also choose to return your Hervey Bay hire car to a different location. Hervey Bay is quite a small destination, so many travellers opt to plan a one way trip, moving south to the Sunshine Coast or north onto Mackay or even up to the Tropical North and Townsville and Cairns.
