Car Hire St Pierre - Mini guide to St Pierre

As the third-largest commune in Reunion, a French overseas department located in the western Indian Ocean, St Pierre is a popular tourist spot. Nestled by the coast in the south-west of the island, it is home to a pretty port and some stunning sandy beaches.

Here you will find everything you need as a tourist, including a smattering of good restaurants and some interesting shops to keep you busy. But many choose to explore the island further by taking advantage of car hire in St Pierre.

If you take your cheap car hire in St Pierre just up the island's west coast a little, you will find the gorgeous holiday favourite of St Gilles. It is also famous for its sandy beaches and is home to many big resorts. You can easily partake in day trips and fishing expeditions from the town's pretty port.

From your car rental in St Pierre you can venture a little further north, where you will find the thriving Le Port town and the island's capital district of Saint-Denis. The main city here is Chaudron, which was made infamous in the 1990s by violent riots over unemployment.

Now you can find a good choice of restaurants and shops here, with the surrounding district also boasting the relaxing Jardin de l'Etat and its attached natural history museum, and the LĂ©on Dierx French art museum.
