Why Boğaz is the ideal base for a North Cyprus car hire

Boğaz, on the coast of the İskele region, sits right between Kyrenia and the Karpaz peninsula, which makes it one of the smartest places to base a North Cyprus holiday. From here the whole east coast is within easy reach, yet you are away from the busier tourist centres. As a family-run company established in 1979 and based in Boğaz itself, Sur Car Hire knows these roads better than anyone, and a rental car turns the scattered beaches, villages and resorts of the region into a single, easy trip.

Free delivery to your hotel or the airport

You do not need to travel anywhere to collect your car. We deliver free of charge to hotels and apartments across Boğaz, Long Beach, Bafra and the wider İskele area, and we can meet you at Ercan Airport so your car is waiting the moment you land. Booking online is deposit-free, so you can reserve in advance and simply pick up the keys on arrival — no queues, no stress after a long flight.

The best day trips from Boğaz by car

With your own car, a week in Boğaz opens up the whole island. Head north-east for the wild beaches and monastery of the Karpaz peninsula, or drive south to explore the ancient ruins and old town of Famagusta. Kyrenia harbour and its castle are an easy coastal drive to the west, while the Long Beach strip and the Bafra resorts are just minutes away for a relaxed beach day.

Driving tips for the İskele region

Traffic in North Cyprus drives on the left, and road signs appear in both Turkish and English. Roads around Boğaz and İskele are generally quiet and in good condition, though it is worth watching for the occasional roundabout and for narrow village lanes inland. The minimum driver age with us is 25. One important rule for every visitor: cars registered in the TRNC cannot cross to the south (Republic of Cyprus), so plan your trips on the northern side of the island.

Booking your Boğaz car hire

Reserving is straightforward: choose your dates, pick a vehicle and book online with no deposit. We offer automatic and manual cars to suit every driver, and our team is on hand to arrange delivery to wherever you are staying in Boğaz or the İskele region. Book ahead in the busy summer months to be sure of the car you want, and let us handle the rest so your holiday starts the moment you arrive.
