Itinerary

20 min

We start our tour at the Nantucket Whale Inn a boutique guest house in Main St. in beautiful Half Moon Bay, CA

10 min

Visit and tour the historic downtown with all it's highlights and haunts.

10 min

Visit the historic Half Moon Bay Jail. Before a jail was built in Half Moon Bay, lawbreakers were held in a wooden shed in the backyard of a judge’s home – which also happened to be the town’s courthouse. The conditions were so bad in the shed that the town’s newspaper called for a new jail and in 1919, the Half Moon Bay Jail was built, still standing today as a historical museum. Although the California Gold Rush attracted ambitious residents to the town, it undoubtedly attracted troublemakers, too. Used primarily as a sheriff’s office and holding cell, the Jail operated until the 1960s – hosting its fair share of overnight bookings and drunken revelers as more dangerous criminals were transferred to the county jail in Redwood City. By the 1970s, the Jail was used as the location for the County’s Mental Health Services office and then ultimately turned over to the city.

See Mavericks, a big wave surf spot located in Half Moon Bay, California, was discovered in the late 1960s. It gained fame in the early 1990s due to a Surfer Magazine photo. Named after a dog named Maverick, the spot hosts some of the world's largest waves and prestigious surf contests. Mavericks remains an iconic and challenging destination for experienced surfers. Mavericks gained worldwide attention for the massive waves, sometimes reaching over 50 feet, making it a premier destination for some of the world's best big wave surfers. In 1999, Mavericks held its first official big wave surf contest, which continues today as one of the most prestigious big wave competitions in the surfing world. Over the years, Mavericks has become a symbol of big wave surfing in California and remains an iconic and challenging location for experienced surfers to test their skills against nature's immense power.

Great experience!

We had such a great time and our guide Rob was fabulous! Patient with a few of us that were first time E bikers, very safety conscious, and his helper Grant was also really nice as well. The pace was perfect and we stopped several times to take pictures or to point out something interesting. Highly recommend!

Operator response

Great! Fabulous! Perfect! Thank you!

Interesting view of old town Half Moon Bay. Long ride along the coast to view the sand and waves. Very safe and easy with e-bikes. Most enjoyable.

Coastline Cruising

If you really want to get a good feel for a place, walking or biking (rather than driving) through that area gives you a much better lay of the land. This tour was a great way to get better acquainted with Half Moon Bay. The idyllic route takes you through downtown, past historic buildings, out to the Brussel sprout fields and along miles of coastal beach trails. Our tour guide Anthony was a friendly and knowledgeable guy. I appreciated learning about everything from the local agriculture and history to HMB's surfing scene to even beach and restaurant recommendations. A seriously lovely way to spend an afternoon!

Fantastic Coastal Ride!

From booking online to meeting our guide to biking the coast, this tour was everything we hoped for and more! Rob was an excellent leader, with clear directions and hand signals, and his history of the area and landscape offered great insight into the region. It was a beautiful clear day of 65 degrees, and we appreciated Rob suggesting we bring jackets because the fog rolled in at one point that really brought the temp down. Once we left the area, it was back to sunny and mild. A cool highlight was witnessing sea lions play and bark in the marina. We would recommend this to anyone who wants to see the coast, breathe the ocean air and get a little exercise!

Operator response

WOW! Thank you.

Breathtaking and exhilarating coastal ride!

The ride along the coastal trail was breathtaking! Loved heading towards Miramar! Rob was an amazing tour guide with lots of local information. He was extremely safety conscious of our group and gave great instruction on how to properly use the bikes and traffic patterns. Watch out for the “bollards”!

Operator response

Rob is great! We are thrilled to hear you had a great time on our Half Moon Bay guided ebike tour:)!!
