Explore Treasure Island on a Half Day Electric Bike Rental

Looking to see the best of Treasure Island without the hassle of traffic or crowded tours? For $64 per person, you can enjoy approximately four hours of freedom on a premium electric bike. The departure point is conveniently located at 11165 Gulf Blvd, and the experience offers an excellent way to cover several key spots like Pass-a-Grille, John’s Pass, or the Pinellas Trail.
What truly stands out about this experience is the easy ride provided by their fat-tire Ebikes, which are built for both comfort and versatility. We particularly loved the adjustable seats and the step-over frames, making it accessible for riders from 4’10” to 6’4”, ensuring you don’t need to be a cycling pro to enjoy the ride. The second highlight is the long-range capacity of up to 45 miles, giving you ample freedom to explore at your own pace.
One consideration worth noting is that, since this is a self-guided rental, you’ll need to be comfortable navigating around the island and sticking to the recommended paths. This experience is ideal if you enjoy a bit of independence while exploring scenic areas at your own pace. It’s especially well-suited for travelers who love a mix of beachside views, light exercise, and a casual urban vibe.
For those who appreciate being outdoors and want a flexible, fun way to see Treasure Island and nearby spots, this Ebike rental offers excellent value. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with friends, the opportunity to explore comfortably while taking in the sights makes it a memorable activity.

If you’re considering a way to see Treasure Island that’s both active and laid-back, a half-day electric bike rental is hard to beat. Priced at $64, this experience offers a 4-hour window to explore, which is ample time to cover several highlights without feeling rushed. The convenient meeting point at Gulf Blvd makes it straightforward to start your adventure.
The Bikes and Their Features
The premium fat-tire Ebikes are designed for comfort and stability. With step-over frames and adjustable seats, they accommodate a wide range of riders, from quite petite to quite tall. Features like cell phone holders, rear baskets, and rearview mirrors mean you can keep essentials close at hand and stay aware of your surroundings. The optional handlebar speaker is a nice touch if you want to add some music to your ride—perfect for a relaxed, fun vibe.
The Route and What You’ll See
The route is flexible but starts along a concrete beachside path, ideal for enjoying the ocean views without worrying about traffic. From there, you can pedal to Pass-a-Grille, a charming beach town with shops and eateries, or head toward John’s Pass, where you’ll find a lively boardwalk atmosphere with shops, restaurants, and activity options. For those wanting to venture further, the Pinellas Trail offers a scenic, shaded route through the area’s natural beauty.
The Ride Experience
One of the biggest advantages of electric bikes is the pedal assist system, which has five levels. This means you can choose to pedal hard or let the motor do most of the work, making longer rides manageable even if you’re not a seasoned cyclist. The throttle feature adds an extra boost when needed, helpful when riding uphill or along headwinds.
A recent reviewer was pleased that “the bikes can travel 45 miles on a single charge,” emphasizing their reliability for a half-day outing. The lock system also means you can stop at a restaurant or shop without worries—you simply lock your bike and continue on foot.
