Hey, Searose! Why don't you just jump ship and stay awhile? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Wink.gif" alt="" /> I am not a car rental expert, but I hear it is difficult to rent in season. If you just want to go to one beach, maybe a taxi would suffice?

You'll need to call day before or day off and ask about availability. I've had good luck with Cool Breeze for the day.

Cheers, RickG

None of the car rental companies will take a reservation for one day during the high season. As Rick said call the day before or walk around Cruz Bay the day you want to rent and ask about availability

It is often possible to find and rent a car for 1 day just getting off the ferry and asking all the cabdrivers and other agents at the end of the dock -- Certainly the earliest you can catch the ferry the better your chances.
