The engine is your laughter and the oar is your foot: a 26-person pedal pub idles into the sheltered blue of Mission Bay, lights thumping as the shoreline slides past. On a warm afternoon the water nudges the platform, gulls wheel in lazy circles, and the boardwalk near Mission Beach glints with activity. Expect a social, low-impact ride where guests pedal together, play music through a built-in sound system, and steer a roomy pontoon around a calm lagoon.
