The scenic landscapes and popular destinations along the West Coast can best be experienced when you rent a car. California has something for everyone, so whether you're exploring the breathtaking coastlines and best-in-class theme parks or prefer off-the-beaten-track experiences and bucket-list landmarks, SIXT has a car for you!
For your convenience, our branches can be found in top vacation destinations and airports throughout California. Car rentals give you more freedom and flexibility, so once you get in the driver's seat of a premium Sixt vehicle, you are set to enjoy the endless sunshine in some amazing cities, such as Los Angeles, San Francisco, and San Diego.
The state is a wonderland in the summer, with theme parks and a huge amount of outdoor activities for everyone. Temperatures will vary a lot from the northern part of the state, where you will find them rarely breaking 80, and inland in the south temperatures often hover in the mid-90s. There are tons of national parks to visit including Yosemite, Sequoia National Park, Pinnacles National Park, and Joshua Tree National Park. If you want to avoid the crowds at the most popular outdoor spots, head to the Russian River, Lake Tahoe or Lake County to enjoy the water. San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Diego will all be crowded during the summer months, but it is also a good time to visit if you want a trip without rain and with warm enough temperatures to enjoy the ocean or lakes. Renting a convertible during the summer is a no-brainer, especially if you plan to drive on the Pacific Coast Highway.
