Venice Beach and Santa Monica Bicycle Tour
Immerse yourself in the vibrant heart of Los Angeles with a 3-hour guided bike tour, setting out from near the famous Santa Monica Pier. Breathe in the refreshing sea air, navigate the storied Venice Canal Historic District, glide effortlessly around Marina del Rey, snap unforgettable images among the colorful Art Walls, and soak up the spirited atmosphere at Muscle Beach. The warm California sun casts a splendid glow, enriching this journey and making it a spectacular venture for anyone with a love for culture and history.
The quirky Venice Canals are a must-see - comprised of six waterways that are approximately 1.5 miles long and 50 feet wide, the canals form a grid and three residential islands. Watch for herons, egrets, coots, pelicans, and more bird life as you cycle through the neighborhood.

See the iconic Muscle Beach, where Jack LaLanne and other famous body builders trained in the 1950s.
