Santa Monica: Bike Rentals Tickets

Santa Monica Bike Rentals

Explore Santa Monica's coastline and attractions on two wheels with flexible bike rentals near the famous pier. You'll get a standard bicycle, helmet, lock and local map to navigate the flat terrain at your own pace. Choose from 2-hour, 4-hour or full-day rentals to suit your schedule.

The rental shop sits close to Santa Monica Pier, putting you within minutes of the Marvin Braude Bike Trail. This coastal route connects you to Venice Beach, Main Street's shops and Palisades Park. Perfect for solo travellers, couples or families who want to cover more ground than walking allows.

How It Works

Pick up your bike at the rental shop near Santa Monica Pier with valid photo ID. Arrive 10 minutes early to complete paperwork and get fitted with your helmet. Your rental period starts at your selected time.

The included map shows popular routes like the Marvin Braude Bike Trail for ocean views, or inland paths to Main Street's cafes and shops. You can cycle towards Venice Beach for the lively boardwalk atmosphere or head to Palisades Park for a quieter break.

Return your bike to the same location before closing time to avoid extra charges. Late returns may incur additional fees.

Good to Know

Every rental includes a non-electric bicycle, helmet, lock and local area map. The bikes suit all ages and skill levels thanks to Santa Monica's flat terrain. Children can participate with age-appropriate bike options available.

Wear comfortable clothing and bring water for your ride. The coastal route can get breezy, so consider a light jacket. Free cancellation is available, and booking ahead secures your preferred time and bike availability.

No guided tours or transport to the shop are included. This is a self-guided experience where you set the pace and choose your route through Santa Monica's highlights.
