What do you need to rent a car in La Costa?
Before you can hop behind the wheel in La Costa, you'll need a valid driver's license and a credit card that matches the name on your license. If you prefer not to take out the rental company's insurance policy, you may also have to provide proof of your own coverage. Rules can vary, so read the contract terms and conditions before you select a rental company.

Where can I find a La Costa car rental if I am younger than 25?
