Ride from Pismo Beach to Shell Beach and Avila Beach on a guided e-bike tour with coastal views and a leafy trail.
About this tour
Feel the sea air as you pedal from Pismo Beach toward Shell Beach and Avila Beach on a guided electric-bike ride. This 150-minute outing pairs rugged coastline with the leafy stretches of the Bob Jones Trail, while a Pedego e-bike helps make the hills easier to tackle.
Your guide leads the way through coastal scenery, with stops to take in the views and snap photos. The route also reaches Mulligan’s Bar & Grill, perched above Port San Luis, where you can buy a snack or drink. Expect some city-street riding alongside traffic, including sections with and without bike lanes, so confidence on a bike and comfort sharing the road are important. The ride suits travelers with moderate fitness and basic bike-handling skills; riders must be at least 13 and weigh no more than 250 pounds.
Start in downtown Pismo Beach, then enjoy a guided Pismo Beach e-bike tour that connects shoreline views, a tree-lined trail, and relaxed stops along the way. Book your ride and discover the coast at an easy electric pace.

How this score is calculated
This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.67 from 21 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.
How the score works and rating distribution in Pismo Beach
- Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
- Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
- Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
- The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.7.
