Rent a Car in Downtown Kuressaare

The car rental station in northern Kuressaare offers a peaceful alternative to city center traffic with easy access to northern Saaremaa. With 1 rental company on-site, the selection is limited, but for those who know what they want, it works perfectly. The location is ideal for trips to Panga cliff and Tagamõisa Peninsula.

From northern Kuressaare, it's just 25 km to Panga cliff – Saaremaa's highest sea cliff at 21 meters – via Road 10 north (approximately 25 minutes). Tagamõisa Peninsula with its scenic coastal roads is approximately 30 km west. Kuressaare city center with the castle and restaurants can be reached in 5 minutes drive south.

Since there is only one rental company here, you should book well in advance, especially during peak season May–September. Northern Kuressaare is a good base if you plan to cycle or hike in Viidumäe Nature Reserve, approximately 20 km west. Check whether the rental company has GPS included – mobile coverage can be weak in the island's more remote areas.

How close is northern Kuressaare to the city center? The station is located approximately 2 km north of Kuressaare city center, about a 5-minute drive via Tallinna Road. Can I return the car at another location on Saaremaa?
