Title: Any beaches to ride ATVs on in Florida?
Post by: Dellanini on June 26, 2005, 11:01:09 AM
We're visiting in Florida for 3 weeks and will be going thru withdrawals from riding our quads . . .

We most often ride dunes at Pismo Beach, but we also ride trails at Hollister Hills, Gorman & Jawbone Canyon.  *All in California.

We'd need to rent quads in order to ride.  So far, in the few minutes that I've been surfing, I've not found anything.  We'd appreciate any information that you would be willing to share about rental quads and locations to ride in Florida.


Florida, here we come!

I believe you can rent tem in New Smyrna.  Only thing is that you can only ride them down the strip that the cars drive.  Also, you have to keep them under 5 mph.  So basically you can cruise the beach to look at scenery but that's it.  The quads they have are 250cc at the biggest.  Good luck, they hate us ATVers down here.

Daytona Beach has quad rentals-like mentioned above it is a 5mph cruisin' speed-you'd probably better off spending money on a jet ski rental.

 :)  We really appreciate all of the responses.  How sad that there is seemingly no place to rent/ride quads.   :o  :-[  :'(

NO, we won't be moving to Florida.  We simply visit family every other year.  They come here on the "other" years.   ;D

In the meantime, if any other information comes to mind, please post it for us.  We'll be there Wednesday afternoon and look forward to the hot, humid Florida sun! :)

Thanks again,
Richard & Lori
