See the beautiful Coastal Monterey
From Asilomar Beach to Fisherman’s Wharf, you’ll see tons of wildlife and learn some of our area’s intriguing history. For those wanting a slower-paced tour, we keep this one at 12 mph max.” This bike tour launches from the Big Sur Adventure’s shop on Cannery Row and features some famous filming locations for HBO’s hit series Big Little Lies.
On this ride, we’ll take a slow pace and explore from Asilomar State Beach to Del Monte Beach. It’s a level ride, about 15 miles round trip. Though we recommend the eBikes so everyone can keep the same pace, guests who are fit are welcome to choose a regular bike (riders are able to turn the power off on their eBike any time too, if they want to do a combo). Fans of Big Little Lies will recognize Lovers Point Park, the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Paluca Trattoria (a coffee shop located on Fisherman’s Wharf). You’ll see a little of old-town Monterey and a lot of beautiful scenery as we explore this beautiful area.
The full ride is about 15 miles and lasts approximately 2 to 2.5 hours. We will spend the first 1.5-2 hours riding 10 miles on a level Recreational Trail shared with pedestrians. For the last 30 minutes, guests can choose between relaxing at Lover’s Point Beach or riding another 5 miles at 15-20 mph through Pacific Grove’s Marine Gardens Park to Asilomar Beach and back. This is on streets with a 25 mph speed limit with a designated bike lane in places.
The Perks of Going Electric

Less physical effort means that you can spend your time enjoying the views, not catching your breath.
Adjust the bike’s electric assistance to fit your preferences. It’s suitable both for people who want a good workout and for those that don’t want to expend much energy.
Other Things To Keep in Mind
- Though we have over 120 e-bikes, we request advanced notice for groups larger than 15 riders. Contact us(opens in a new tab) to make arrangements.
- While Southern California is known for its sunny weather, our climate here up north tends to be a bit cooler. We recommend dressing warmly so that you can fully enjoy the ride!
