Bike Rental FAQ

Can I ride bikes on the beach?

Yes, but only at low tide on hard, dry sand to avoid damage. Please keep bikes out of wet sand to prevent corrosion and extra fees. After each beach ride, be sure to rinse the bike thoroughly to remove any salt or sand residue. For the best times, check the Tide Chart during your stay.

‍

Prevent Additional Fees
Keep bikes away from wet sand and rinse rentals thoroughly before pickup to prevent salt damage.‍

What types of bikes do you have?

We have a variety of custom Priority™ x Drifters bikes available for rent, including beach cruisers, town cruisers, kids bikes, and electric bikes. All of our bikes are well-maintained and perfect for exploring St. Augustine.

Do you provide bike helmets and locks?

Highly recommend DRIFTERS to anyone looking for a quick and easy bike rental while vacationing in the St. Augustine area! They were able to fit me into there schedule last minute and bring me my rental in the time I selected even with the late notice. They deliver for free to you and pick up as well which is really convenient. Great communication throughout the whole process as well.

We had a large group visit us in St. Augustine at our home and Ian at Drifters had the bikes delivered on time and with ease! The group was blown away with how fun it was to have the bikes available and see the town this way instead of waiting in traffic. We will totally be doing this again, I highly recommend. The bikes are stylish, comfortable, and in good shape. Thanks again!

Drifters was phenomenal in making sure we had our umbrella/chairs setup each morning. Regular text communication to advise if there would be a delay due to the high tide and even giving us back the delayed time on the back end of the day to ensure we got what we paid for. Not having to battle an umbrella like we typically do took major frustration out of our vacation; that alone made it worth the money.

Ian is a total pro and has created the ultimate beach rental company with DRIFTERS.  Researched a few options but was a no brainer to rent bikes from them. He and his crew provided delivery/pickup and also safe biking routes from our house. Loved riding the custom blue bike around town and seeing other DRIFTERS bikes along the way. As my friend Jaime said on our first ride, "I am smiling from ear to ear on this bike!"
