Transfer the short distance from the port to the start point of your e-bike ride -- a chance to discover the fascinating Art Deco history of Napier city.
Gear up with a helmet and a comfortable touring e-bike. Listen to a safety briefing before you cycle on a dedicated walking and cycling trail. Along the way, there are plenty of stops for commentary and photos at the seaside, estuary wetlands and rural farms.
Following the shoreline, you'll enjoy spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean and the bay that makes up Hawke's Bay. Closer to your destination, you will cycle along more urban trails toward a well-deserved food and wine stop at the cellar door (tasting room) of one of Hawke's Bay's top wineries. Enjoy a wine tasting and a seasonal platter.
Return to the Napier port by van or coach.
