Where to Rent Bikes for the Perfect Ride Down the Venice Beach Boardwalk

Riding the Venice boardwalk along a beach cruiser bike allows you to take in Muscle Beach, the skate park, performers, and Abbot Kinney Boulevard in a 3-5 mile round trip along the boardwalk between Venice and the Santa Monica Pier. Premier rental locations would be around Venice Beach parking lots off Washington Blvd and Ocean Front Walk-single speed cruisers include a basket and cost between 10-25/hour, 25-50/full day (9 am- 7 pm). Cycles such as Venice Beach Cycles, Perry’s Cafe, and Boardwalk Bike Shop are popular shops that provide hybrids for riding on the boardwalk; no reservation is required during the off-peak season. Mural photography; bring your helmet (not compulsory); lock up. Picturesque 1-3 hours of riding in the ocean winds.

Rental Shop Locations

Venice Beach Cycles (1800 Ocean Front Walk) is boardwalk facing, ready to enjoy rides at the moment. The Cafe & Beach Rentals of Perry (28 34th Ave) is a hybrid/single-speed fleet, which walks out of the sand. This has surf-friendly hourly deals in the Boardwalk Bike Shop (1402 Ocean Front Walk).

Pricing Comparison

Hourly $10-15 standard cruisers; full-day $35-50. Multi-day/week discounts; tandems $20/hr extra. Cash/card; kids’ bikes $8/hr available.

Best Boardwalk Routes

Start Venice Canals, cruise north past skate park to Santa Monica (5mi one-way)—flat, scenic. South to Marina del Rey loops back. Avoid peak 11 am-4 pm foot traffic.
