What this means for drivers

Why people rent a car in Bayonne

Bayonne sits on a peninsula between Jersey City and Staten Island, and it is home to Cape Liberty Cruise Port. That gives it two distinct kinds of demand: cross-harbour commuters, and cruise passengers who need a car either side of a sailing.

What it costs

Rentals start from $29 a day, with owners setting their own daily, weekly and monthly rates. Cruise-related bookings often run a week or longer.

Collecting the car

Handover is arranged directly with the owner across Bergen Point, Uptown Bayonne and Constable Hook. Parking is easier here than in Jersey City or Hoboken, which makes handover simpler.

Driving here
