New Tour! Fat Tire Bikes Beach Tour
Where is this tour:
Florida’s ONLY Fat Tire Bike Tour is on the Canaveral National Seashore near Kennedy Space Center. Join us for a day of adventure as we take you to this unspoiled beach and wildlife area to see some of Florida’s famous Space Coast landmarks.
What’s on the Fun Agenda:
We start this tour by letting you pack your own lunch! Guest arrive to our office and get to choose from a variety of picnic food that they will take with them for a beach picnic. Then we head out to the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge. This is one of America’s largest wildlife sanctuaries. It boasts rare birds, spectacular views of Kennedy Space Center and the Space-X launch pads.
What You Will See:
You and your guides will jump on your Fat Tire Bikes and head down the wildlife trails to see Florida Alligators, Blue Herons, Roseate Spoon Bills, and other animals who call this nature reserve their home.
See Space-X Launch Pads from a Rare View – Photo Op!
Along the way, take time to look out across the expanse of the Space Center and snap some Insta-worthy photos of the Space-X launch pads, NASA’s Vehicle Assembly Building (so large it has it’s own atmosphere), and the unspoiled Florida nature. This bit of coastlines is one of the only places you can see Florida the same way it has looked for hundreds of years. This land was originally home to a Native American tribe called the Ais.
Beach Picnic with Time for Swimming
After a fun filled ride on your Fat Tire Bicycle, you will end up at the beach! This is the time to unpack your picnic lunch and enjoy the beauty of the Atlantic ocean. Be sure to watch for Dolphins and Pilot Whales who frequently pass by this coast.
After some fun time at the beach, we will drive back and end the tour in the early afternoon. This gives you plenty of time to explore the Kennedy Space Center, Cocoa Beach, or other adventures in the area.

Very memorable and a great experience. Nearly a 2 hour kayaking adventure on easy, flat water canal. Picturesque & Ram, the owner, very knowledgable. It took about 1.5 hour to drive from Orlando.
The manatees were plentiful and curious to be involved with humans. My husband was lucky enough to rub the head, back and belly of a couple manatees. I got to pet a few, as well. Very serene and enjoyable.
Ram, the owner, did a fantastic job on educating us about the manatee and "small talking" with each one of us. -

Gabriel was a great tour guide and we had a wonderful time on our kayaking trip. Gabriel was very knowledgeable about the wildlife and we had a lot of fun talking to him. We went at the end of July and the bioluminescence was magical. We also saw dolphins, shrimp, crabs, mullets, and of course manatees.
We have no comment on Rick.

I can't say enough about how wonderful our experience was. I've never really spent much time kayaking, so the instructions at the beginning of the tour were very helpful. We did the combination sunset tour and bioluminescence, and both were unforgettable. Abigail was so enthusiastic and wealth of knowledge! Jade was thoughtful and gentle, making suggestions and pointing out small obstacles. We walked into the water near the shoreline for a bit after, enjoying the stars and playing in the glowing water. Don't hesitate. BOOK THIS! You are going to be blown away.

We always like to try something new on our annual summer break and opted for the manatee tour. On a Tuesday it's only $29 a person which is fantastic value for the 2 hour plus we spent on the river. Saw many manatees and a few dolphins plus many types of birds. Would recommend to anyone.
FAQ
Our tours rarely cancel due to weather. If it is raining the day of the tour, chances are, with Florida weather, it will clear up by the time your tour starts. Sometimes we will hold the tour by 30 minutes for the weather to clear. In the case of lightning, high winds, or some other reason that we cannot paddle, we will re-schedule all guests to the very next tour available, or at a convenient time for you. Rainchecks are valid for 1 year.
Because of wildlife and environmental protection we have a limited number of bicycles we can use at one time. There will be 4-6 people on your tour, plus your guide. Fat tire bikes are made to ride in sand and over rough terrain. They are perfect for your wildlife beach adventure.
This tour is better for older children. All of our bikes are 26 inches. We recommend children are 10+ and 55" tall to be able to ride the fat tire bikes.
BK Adventure's office is about 50 miles from Orlando, and just 15 minutes away from Kennedy Space Center. Guest will meet at our Titusville office and then be driven to the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge (about 10 miles away).
