Key West Scooter & Golf Cart Rentals

The Perfect Pairing – Water Adventures + Island Exploration

You’ve got the water covered with us – now let’s get you exploring everything else this paradise island has to offer. Whether you’re cruising to Fort Zachary Taylor Beach before your sunset charter, hitting Duval Street after your sandbar adventure, or exploring the island between boat trips, HydroThunder’s fleet puts you in control of your Key West experience.

We know Key West better than anyone. That’s why we’ve partnered with HydroThunder to offer you seamless access to the island’s premier land transportation rentals. When you’re not out on the water with us exploring crystal-clear paradise, you’ll want reliable wheels to discover everything from Ernest Hemingway’s house to the Southernmost Point – and everything in between.

Why HydroThunder Stands Out

The Newest, Cleanest Fleet in Key West

HydroThunder doesn’t just maintain their vehicles – they renew their entire fleet annually. That means you’re getting modern, reliable equipment every single time. No worn-out seats, no questionable engines, no surprises. Just clean, dependable transportation ready for your adventure.

Over a Decade of Island Expertise

Since opening their doors, HydroThunder has built their reputation on quality equipment and genuine customer care. They’re not the biggest rental company in Key West, but they’re the one that treats every rental like it matters – because it does.

Prime Location Access

Located at 150 Simonton Street, HydroThunder puts you minutes from Duval Street action while offering convenient access to explore every corner of this 2-mile by 4-mile island paradise.

Combine Water & Land for the Ultimate Experience

Here’s how smart visitors do Key West:

Morning: Pick up your scooter or golf cart and explore the island. Hit Smathers Beach, grab breakfast at Blue Heaven, snap photos at the Southernmost Point.

Afternoon: Meet us at the dock for your private boat charter. Cruise to Snipes Keys sandbar, swim in crystal-clear waters, watch dolphins play in our wake.

Evening: Return your rental vehicle and catch the legendary Mallory Square sunset celebration, or keep your wheels and explore Duval Street nightlife.

The beauty? You’re in complete control of your schedule, your pace, and your adventure.

Do I need a motorcycle license to rent a scooter in Key West?

No motorcycle license needed! Just a valid driver’s license and you must be at least 18 years old. HydroThunder provides a thorough safety briefing and you’ll complete a quick safety check ride with their staff before heading out. Helmets are provided and required for anyone 16 and under.

What’s better for exploring Key West – scooter or golf cart?

It depends on your group and style! Solo travelers and couples love scooters for their nimbleness and parking ease. Families and groups prefer golf carts for comfort and staying together. Both are fantastic ways to explore the island.

Is parking easy to find in Key West?

Parking in Old Town and along Duval Street can be challenging for cars – but that’s where scooters and golf carts shine. You’ll find parking spots that cars can only dream about, and many locations offer free scooter/golf cart parking.

Can I rent if I’m arriving on a cruise ship?

Absolutely! Many cruise ship passengers rent from HydroThunder to maximize their Key West port day. Just coordinate your rental period with your ship’s schedule.

Can I book both a boat charter and a scooter rental?

Definitely! Many of our guests rent wheels for exploring the island and join us for a boat charter during their Key West visit. It’s the ultimate way to experience both land and water paradise.

The Salty Bottom Difference

We’re picky about who we partner with – and HydroThunder earned our trust through their commitment to quality equipment and genuine customer care. When you’re exploring the island on their scooters, golf carts, or electric cars, you’re getting the same level of attention to detail that we bring to every boat charter.

Our Promise: We only recommend partners whose standards match our own. HydroThunder delivers reliable equipment, fair pricing, and the kind of service that makes your Key West experience unforgettable.
