E-Bike Family Fun Day – Launiupoko Beach

Embark on a family-sized fun e-bike adventure to Launiupoko Beach on our self-guided tour

A family e-bike ride might just be one of the most memorable experiences from your Maui vacation. It’s a unique way to enjoy Maui’s beauty, while getting exercise, avoiding traffic and having fun!

The electric bike makes it very easy to stay together, even among different skill and fitness levels. Faster and stronger riders can simply use a lower level of pedal assistance. Plus, we have cargo bikes to transport small children, as well as tandem bikes that make it even easier to ride with a buddy.

The 14-mile ride to and from Launiupoko Beach is the longer of our two self-guided tour options and you should plan on spending at least 4 hours from start to finish.

On this 4-hour self-guided tour:

Enjoy the Valley Isle without worrying about parking, gas prices, or exhaust emissions. Explore the wonderful History and Culture of Lahaina to family fun day at Launiupoko Beach, all from an electric-powered bike that takes the sting out of bike riding and enables the rider to experience and enjoy the coastal trail, Lahaina history and fun day at the Launiupoko Beach.

This activity will create an unforgettable travel experience for your entire family.

Taking the bike north of Honolua Bay or south of Olowalu is considered OUTSIDE the West Maui boundaries and is not included. Please keep in mind: The bike rescue insurance must be purchased BEFORE your ride. If you encounter an issue outside of a 7.5 mile radius, an additional fee will be charged based on the distance. If the bike runs out of battery charge outside of the West Maui boundaries it is not covered under bike rescue.

OPTIONAL ACTIVITIES:

You may wish to enjoy one of the family-friendly attractions on the way to or from the beach park. If you plan to do one of these, be sure to book a full-day tour so you are not rushed. We recommend doing some research in advance to make sure the tour is open during the day and times you plan to visit and make reservations if possible. The summer months are busy on Maui and tours can fill up in advance.

• Maui Bee Tour – participate in a hands-on honey workshop
• Maui Dragon Fruit Farm – taste delicious exotic fruit and learn how to open a coconut
• Paradise Eco Adventures – go on an exhilarating zip line ride or play in an aqua ball

Beginner Riders, please consider the following:

1. Ask for an evaluation test ride before renting the e-bike. Being able to properly balance, get on, get off a bike and ride making controlled tight turns under your own power as well as pedal assist is critical.
2. If you are not confident following your evaluation test ride, either cancel before the 24 hours or switch to a tandem bike. You can also rent an e-bike for 2 hours to practice before the group ride to get comfortable.
3. Rent a Tandem bike (2 people on one bike) utilizing an experienced rider as the lead rider.
4. Hire a guide to take you on a tandem.
