“The full day gave us a great opportunity to really explore the Mirimar peninsula, essentially a flat ride, although the wind did make it a bit challenging in some sections. Very helpful staff, ensuring we were given some great riding options to choose.”

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 99 reviews · from $65

Pick up a step-through e-bike at 117 Marine Parade and spend one to eight hours exploring Napier and Hawke’s Bay.

Cruise ship passengers have an especially easy start, with the shop directly across from the Napier iSite shuttle stop.

“Renting these E bikes was the best experience. We rode along the ocean, stopped a little seaside restaurant and bar, and met some wonderful people along the way. The E bike staff were extremely knowledgeable and helpful and had our bikes ready when we showed up. I would highly recommend it as a great way to get around Napier.”
