What’s the best way to explore the foreshores of Coffs Harbour and leave everyone back home envious of you? Why, Montem Bike Tours, of course. Coffs Harbour has numerous viewing platforms, allowing you to discover and take in the breathtaking coastal scenes all from the seat of your bike. Depending on the seasons you can discover a range of sea birds, green sea turtles, sting rays, dolphins and in the migrating seasons, the majestic whales. This is a guided leisurely bike ride, enabling you to take in the views, take some photos and learn about the history of Coffs Harbour. An option for those who are keen, if the tides are low, we will also ride along the beach, which is so much fun. On Saturday and Sunday mornings you have the option of joining us for some delicious mini pancakes and coffee/tea or milk shakes by the beach which is a fantastic way to start your day (this is an extra cost). All bikes and helmets are included within the tour.

Inclusions: Unique Mountain Bike, Australian Standard Helmet

Exclusions: Water Bottle - Please bring your own

So glad we found this company during our stay in Coffs! It was easy to arrange bike hire by calling Montem and they delivered the bikes to our requested locale in Woolgoolga (call a few days in advance). Very reasonable hire rates. We rode brand new mountain bikes from Woolgoolga to Arrawarra and back and had loads of fun. Kristy and Olly were very friendly and helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

We meet at Bonville Headland where you can take in the magnificent views of the coast. Here we will supply you with a mountain bike & helmet. After a short debrief of bike & safety checks, we will commence our ride, heading north towards Coffs Harbour. A ride around the jetty foreshores is a wonderful way to capture the Coffs coastline. There are so many magnificent viewing platforms, & you will see the jetty from north to south to being right on it. At times we have the opportunity to see various wildlife including sea birds, green sea turtles, sting rays, dolphins & during the migrating seasons, whales. You have a few options: A walk up & over Muttonbird Island; a swim at Jetty beach; or you can relax with a coffee/snack by the ocean (at own expense). The Coffs Harbour Markets are also on every Sunday at the Jetty. Leaving the Jetty, we head back to Sawtell. All bikes & helmets are included, all you need is a drink bottle, camera and your sense of adventure.

Inclusions: Mountain Bike, Helmet

This tour is run by a couple who are owner, operators. We found them to be very professional, and extremely friendly. The actual tour was great value. It included fantastic scenic locations, with very knowledgable commentary. The food provided was excellent . Fresh, homemade, and set out in beautiful settings. Adding to this, I accidently dropped my phone on the bus before being dropped off. I rang them and said I would be happy to come and get it, but they went out of their way to return it to our apartment.
