Bonaire: Electric Mountain Bike Rental with Trails & Gear

Summary

Electric mountain bikes let you roam Bonaire’s rugged trails and coastline, easy climbs with Yamaha power and all gear included for a day or week of exploring

You’ll ride through Bonaire’s wild countryside on an electric mountain bike—no guide needed, just you and open trails. Expect salty air by the coastline, easy hill climbs thanks to Yamaha power, and plenty of time to stop for photos or chats with locals. Gear is included so you can focus on exploring at your own pace—and maybe surprise yourself along the way.

What’s the experience like?

So, I thought I’d be clever and start early to beat the heat—but of course, my sunscreen exploded in my bag before I even picked up the e-mountain bike. The guy at the rental shop just grinned, handed me a paper towel, and said, “Welcome to Bonaire.” That pretty much set the tone: nothing too serious, just people who love their island and want you to see it properly. They showed me how the Giant Talon-E worked (I definitely needed that demo), especially since I’m not exactly a pro cyclist.

The first thing you notice is how quiet it gets once you’re out of town—just wind in your ears and this low electric hum from the bike. There’s this one stretch near the coast where you can actually smell salt on your lips, like the sea is everywhere. Some goats wandered across my path; I slowed down and they stared back like they owned the place. The climbs weren’t bad at all with that Yamaha engine—honestly, I kept waiting for my legs to give out but it never happened. Maybe too easy? Not complaining.

I stopped more than I planned—there was this spot where cactus flowers were blooming in weird pinks against all that dusty rock. Didn’t expect to care about cactus flowers but here we are. The helmet felt snug (not too sweaty), and having a proper lock made it easy to just leave the bike for a bit while I tried to pronounce “kunuku” like a local. A guy named Li laughed when he heard me try—probably butchered it. Anyway, by late afternoon my arms were sunburned but I felt oddly proud rolling back into town on that monster of a bike.
