E-Bike Guided Tour Downtown St. Pete — Waterfront Sights, Murals & the Dali Museum
Glide along St. Pete’s waterfront on an easy 2.5‑hour e‑bike loop that pairs coastal views with public art, the Dali Museum’s glowing façade, and quiet bays where dolphins and manatees appear. Perfect for mixed‑ability groups, this guided ride covers the Pinellas Trail, historic piers, and mural‑strewn streets.
The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before and during
Bring a 20–32 oz refillable bottle and sip frequently—coastal sun and Florida humidity dehydrate quickly even on an easy ride.
Protect yourself from sun
Wear SPF 30+ sunscreen, a brimmed hat under your helmet if allowed, and UV sunglasses to avoid glare off the water.
Dress in light layers
A light windshirt handles bay breezes and the cooler moments near the pier; breathable fabrics keep you comfortable.
Use the pedal assist
Let the e-bike do the work—choose a lower assist for warm‑up and bump it up on longer stretches to keep the group together.

St. Petersburg’s first pier opened in 1889 to serve rail and fishing interests; the waterfront evolved into a civic gathering place rebuilt several times over the next century.
