The must-haves
Go for a bike ride
FOLLOW THE PATH AND SEE WHERE IT LEADS!
There’s no need to rush, you’re on holiday – why not slow down and go by bike instead?
Everyone cycles here!
On your bikes!
You might find yourself sharing the path with joggers, rollerbladers, skateboarders – or people just out for a stroll. On other paths, you may not meet anyone at all, but have the pine forest all to yourself!
The paths are not only for cyclists, everyone can enjoy them!
Surfers can head for the beach by bike, with their board under their arm, all set to paddle out to sea. Parents can cycle along at a leisurely pace and enjoy watching their kids race ahead.
Or you can come back from the market laden with goodies and set off for the beach with your towels, books and picnic in the basket.
Choose your bike, cycle at your own pace, go where you like, stop where you like – and share the fun!
That’s what holidays are all about!
There are plenty of bike hire outlets!
Bring your own bike with you, or hire one here on the Peninsula. You’re spoiled for choice: bikes of all shapes, sizes and colours, traditional tandems, Bikers, Australian or Dutch bikes, with or without a basket!
