More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The ocean edge pulls you forward: a wide paved ribbon of the Cinta Costera opens to the bay, traffic falling away as palm trees and the skyline unfurl. You clip into a road bike at the Rali Store on Avenida Balboa and the city rearranges itself into a rideable map — waterfront promenades, colonial streets of Casco Viejo, and the straight sweep toward the Amador Causeway.
