The Experience

You've got a free afternoon or a morning before your flight, and South Beach is on the list—but walking the full stretch of Ocean Drive and the boardwalk in the sun is a lot. An electric bike changes that math. After a quick rundown of the bike at the meeting point on 14th Street, you ride with a guide along Ocean Drive through the Art Deco District, where the preserved 1920s and 1930s buildings line the street. The motor does the work on any incline, so you stay cool and can actually look around instead of just moving forward.

The route moves through Lincoln Road and onto the boardwalk—a scenic 40-block stretch with the Atlantic on one side and the South Beach hotels and condos on the other. You stop at South Pointe Park at the southern tip of Miami Beach, where the views open up to cruise ships docked at PortMiami, the Downtown Miami skyline across Biscayne Bay, and Fisher Island. The guide shapes the stops and the pace to what interests you, so if you want more time at the marina or the park, that's where the bike stays. The whole thing runs 90 minutes, helmet and bottled water included.
