  • Gainesville: More Than Just a University Town

    Whether you're visiting the University of Florida or exploring the arts and culture available in Gainesville, car rental is a great option when you travel through this city. Since Gainesville spans more than 64 square miles, having your own transportation makes it easy to explore and avoid the traffic.

    The Layout

    It's easy to navigate here by car even if you're unfamiliar with the area because the streets are laid out in a grid. The city center is Main Street and University Avenue in downtown Gainesville, and it's surrounded by four quadrants. Avenues, places, roads, and lanes run east and west while drives, streets, and terraces run north to south. Most streets are also numbered.

    The University

    The Gainesville Airport is located just a 12-minute drive from the University of Florida in normal traffic, approximately 5 miles away. If you're staying on campus, you'll have fast car access to many of the city's attractions. In fact, right on campus you'll find the Florida Museum of Natural History. This attraction is one of the jewels of the area, featuring a butterfly garden and exhibits that detail the state's cultural traditions and distinctive habitats.

    Enjoy the Outdoors

    Sweetwater Wetlands Park is about 2.5 miles south of the university and can be accessed by car in just five minutes. You'll see wildlife ranging from alligators and turtles to horses and cranes as you stroll the boardwalk nature trails. Keep your eyes open to catch a glimpse of colorful birds and enjoy the region's diverse plant life.

    If you're up for a slightly longer drive, head just 18 minutes north of Sweetwater in your car rental to the Carson Springs Wildlife Conservation Foundation. This preserve is home to 28 animal species and more than 75 individual animals, including big cats.
