Aegina port car hire centres on pickups within a 2–5 minute walk of the ferry dock, where conventional ferries and fast catamarans arrive from Piraeus Gate E8. Pickup follows a practical four-step process, and the whole handover usually takes 15–25 minutes when the booking details match your documents. Economy cars start from around €25/day, with local agencies clustered along the Aegina Town waterfront. Most mainland Greek rental contracts prohibit ferrying the vehicle, so the standard answer is to rent locally on the island rather than bring a car across: a conventional ferry ticket for a car carries its own freight cost and most agreements void cover the moment the vehicle is driven onto a ferry deck.
