The ride begins with the gulls and a salt headwind at Redondo Beach Pier, where a wooden boardwalk meets the Pacific’s steady pulse. Mount an electric cruiser, feel a quiet surge from the motor, and let the bike path unspool north — palms, surfers, and piers passing like chapter marks. The ocean pushes at your right shoulder; the harbor slips into view, then the long, low arc of Manhattan and Hermosa beaches.

Conservation
Coastal paths are high-use habitats—pack out trash, avoid disturbing shorebirds, and use reef-safe sunscreen to reduce chemical runoff into marine ecosystems.
Reserve your spot on the E-Bike LA Beach Tour from Redondo Beach Pier today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Check the battery range
Keep assist levels moderate—higher motor assist drains the battery faster and can affect your ability to complete the round-trip on a single charge.
Hydrate and protect from sun
Bring a full water bottle and reef-safe sunscreen; coastal sun and reflective water intensify UV exposure even on overcast days.
Expect heavy pedestrian traffic
Slow down in crowded boardwalk sections, announce passes politely, and watch for dogs and kids, especially near piers and Venice Beach.
Plan parking and timing
Park on the top level of the Pier Plaza parking structure and arrive early to secure a spot and beat weekend rushes and afternoon headwinds.
Reusable water bottle
Staying hydrated is key on sunny, exposed coastal paths.
Sunscreen (reef-safe)
