Two-wheeled vehicles are a fun way to explore all the scenery and and personality of your Caribbean island paradise without spending a lot of money.

Many Caribbean hotels and resorts will rent bikes to guests, or have an agreement with a nearby company for preferential rates. Scooters and motor bikes are often available through car rental agencies. Remember that it may be harder to drive a scooter or motor bike over rough terrain and bumpy roads. Stick to flat and well paved roads. For a scenic tour, rent a mountain bike and explore lush nature and spectacular vistas. Mountain bikes are available for rental on the more mountainous islands.

Here are the rental basics:

Vehicle Approximate Daily Rental Costs Approximate Weekly Rental Costs
Bicycles $10(USD) to $25(USD) Often discounted
Scooters $20(USD) $130(USD)
Motorbikes $25(USD) $160(USD)

On some Caribbean islands, you may need to pay deposit, carry insurance, or have the proper driving permits to rent a bicycle, motor bike, or scooter.
