I rented a bike from this place and made a reservation for 3pm. Since it was labor day weekend, it was poppin so I would recommend making reservations if possible. The rental shop is less than a 5 minute drive from the Oceano Dune beach area, so you just get your paperwork and pay there. You can drive on the sand and go straight to their van area where you pick up your bike but make sure your car can handle driving on the sand. If not, you can park your car along the street or parking lot and get picked up by the company van straight to the rental spot with the bikes. Just call the number on the receipt for pick up. We had to wait a good 15 minutes before pick up. I dont think we got the chance to chose the bikes since we just wanted the basic ones but after all the fees, it cost $82 a person for two hours. The customer service from the shop and the van was great. They are really nice people despite their busy schedules. The only downside is that these bikes kept breaking down and could not take the steeper hills. It seriously broke down on me like 5 times, whether it was because it got stuck in a hole or the bike would not start all together. I had to call while I was out on the dune to ask what to do and they gave me instructions to rock the bike and put in neutral, etc. Girls should not ATV without guys because there was no way I could have gotten the bike out of the hole whatsover. It felt a little miserable because I was just helpless and its so frustrating that it kept breaking down. I think all rentals will have this issue unfortunately. If you want company and you dont wanna dig your rental out of the dunes, I would recommend the two person vehicle for sure. **TIPS** 1) Bring sunglasses so you dont have to rent their goggles. 2) If it is a hot day, you can wear a tank, shorts and sneakers. However, YOU MUST WEAR HIGH SOCKs. The heat near the pedals was unbearable and my skin was red and rashy. If you dont wear pants or tights, you have to wear high socks to cover your calves. It is something I wish I knew about before I got there. Trust. 3) If you are a girl, go with a guy or else you are screwed in the dunes. If anything, do the two person vehicle because those are hopefully powerful enough. 4) Sunblock it up. Its friggin hot. 5) Check in prior to paying and get a $5 discount. I checked in right after paying and was refunded the $5. 6) Enjoy! read more

So I rented a two seater rhino for an hour for me and my wife since it was our first time out here (did online reservations so checking in was quick). Great service! They even helped me find my iPhone when I realized that I lost it. Thank you so much to Kwen and Paul for their help and to the management for helping me out! We'll definitely come back again! read more

Visited this place back in September 2016 and it was a pleasure. Great customer service, very easy process and informative. We got there around 9, and so glad we did, we didn't have to wait much to be helped but It was super busy When we got back to shop to pick up our deposits which was around noon. We were first timers and the two hour rental was enough. Wear think layers, as it can get pretty warm out there. There is a deposit-security fee but it's not much. It's also better to pay that in cash, and not with a card, you get your cash back right away instead of having to wait on the hold through bank card. I will rent from here again next time I visit Pismo! read more

Came here with 4 of my friends, and none of us had gone ATV-ing before. All bright-eyed and excited, we step into this quaint little shop to find an older woman at the counter watching CNN and smiling at us. $70 and a "I won't sue if I die" waiver later, we were off and on our way down to the beach with helmet in hand. We park on the beach and notice that out of all the rental stands, B J's is the smallest with the least number of ATV's. No matter I guess, one is all I needed. There were two guys chilling in the RV next to the ATV's who ended up explaining things to us - they were friendly and clear with their directions. Even though we were newbies, they had no condescending tone and were willing to help out those in our group who had trouble shifting gears or whatnot. After a brief lesson (and I mean BRIEF - 30 seconds around the lot without any verbal instructions), we were OFF!! The actual ATV-ing part was a blast, even though I flipped mine over on top of me trying to race over a particularly high dune. I recommend it to ANYONE who wants a rush and isn't afraid of sand/dirt. The grounds is huge (larger than most college campuses), and there are a lot of people out there on different vehicles (Hummers, dirt bikes, bigger ATVs), so watch out. I broke the flag that stuck out of my ATV when it flipped, so when we came back the lady had to charge me 5 bucks. No biggie. Fun fun fun - 4 stars! read more

Super fun! Forget about the price; it costs but you will have such an amazing time. Seriously what are you waiting for? Give them your money and do this! Right now, no not later now.Have fun be safe read more

Mike and John are awesome and great at customer service 5 stars all the way!! Definitely coming back again! Great job guys!

Best Rentals!! Super easy hassle free and great service! Thank you John, Mike, and Quinn for the wonderful customer service.

Mike,John, and Quinn helped out on our first time atv riding. We had a huge group of 14, which is hard to manage. They were courteous, professional and helpful. Thanks guys! read more

1. MAKE reservation! Well, I guess if they run out, then you can always go to their next door neighbor, ARNIES? We just made reservation since we went during the labor's day weekend 2. You come to the office first to fill out the paperwork before you actually head down to the beach. They have free shuttle from the beach to the actual location so take advantage of that and park somewhere on the street! Just wait near the entrance of the beach, and you'll see BJ's shuttle! It's FREE! 3. x 250EX ($70/2hrs) seems to be the most popular one there and it's semi-automatic btw. I didn't get that one but I heard it's not that hard to learn. x Grizzly ($45/2hrs).....I only got this because I was scared to drive the semi-automatic one but it was a fail! It's weaaaaaak therefor you'll get STUCK a lot when you go uphill.........so just pay the extra $25 and go with 250EX!!!! (If you do get stuck...just get out and lift the ATV up...it's not THAT heavy) 4. There's a $5 fuel surcharge per ATV btw. 5. If you want extra protection, bring goggles otherwise it's not needed! Long pants, shoes, sunglasses, and bandana are all you need 6. Service was definitely 2 thumbs up! I think it was "RICK?" that went through the list of dos/donts. Nice and funny man I tell ya!! read more

I had so much fun here today and highly recommend renting from BJ's ATV Rentals. The lady at the rental office was so nice and helpful. The drivers were friendly and quick on pick ups. Renting was easy. Drive to the rental office. Pay and sign some waivers. Cost was about $82 for 2 hrs. Drive to the parking lot at the beach where they'll pick you up and show you how to use the ATVs. Within a few minutes, you'll be riding the dunes. Tips*** 1. Bring some water. After 2 hrs your mouth will feel as dry as the sand. 2. Bring sunglasses because the sand can get into your eyes. 3. Bring a hoodie if you plan on coming late afternoon off season due to cooler weather. 4. Bring a cell phone incase you get stuck in some soft sand or your ATV is not working because you did something weird to it. 4. Check in on Yelp and get free gas. 5. Don't damage anything and enjoy the ride. read more

A group of five of us wanted to go ATV-ing on Saturday so I called on Friday to make reservations. It was pretty pain-free. She took down my name, credit card information to hold the reservation, date/time of arrival, and number of people who were under and over 120 lbs (I guess this would change the type of ATV we would get). We arrived 30 minutes before our set time and since it wasn't busy, we were able to start the process early. Turns out that the lady at the counter had my name down but not how many people were in the group or which specific ATVs we needed (we all ended up with the same kind). She attributed to being drunk the day before while taking down our reservations... jokingly I think. We paid individually with our cards, tried on helmets, and were on our way. The process was completely pain free. We get to the beach where all the ATV rental companies are situated. Arnie's, Angello's and BJ's are all next to each other and out of the three, BJ's probably looks the least glamorous with not as many ATVs (perhaps they were all rented out). The two guys giving us an introduction were very friendly except they scared the crap out of us with information (cliffs, 7 people who died last year, etc.). After a couple minutes of instruction, we were on our way to two hours of nonstop fun. In the end, I'm glad they scared us because we might not have been as cautious. You really have to be careful on the sand dunes because of the random cliffs that you could end up flying over and dropping 10-20 feet straight to the bottom. We returned the ATVs, drove back to the rental site on Grand Ave., returned the helmets, then two of our guys who broke the flags had to pay $5 for each of them. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely rent from them again! read more

First of all, I strongly recommend ATVing at Pismo Beach. It was great fun for the entire family. There are many vendors that rent ATVs here, and I strongly suggest you use someone else. We arrived at 12:45 for a 1 pm reservation. It was 2:15 before we finally reached our ATVs. There was a long line at the front desk, and they admitted they were understaffed. We got our paperwork done and drove out to the beach where we were told a white SUV would pick us up and take us to their lot....well, that was what we were told. We waited....and waited....and waited.... During this time, a competitor's bus came and went 3 times. After more than 45 minutes being stranded on the beach, it finally showed up. Of course, when it did there were more people at the stop then would fit in the SUV and a few had to wait for the next one. At this point, I told my family that we were leaving if we did not get on this one, I did not have time to wait another 45 minutes (fortunately, we got on and the others arrived at the lot shortly after we did). To make this worse, my ATV stalled several times and I had difficulty re-starting it. I took it back and they gave me another one, which had no further problems (and kind of rules out user error). The line, and even the trouble with the ATV, alone may have cost 1/2 star. But being stranded on the beach for so long was completely unacceptable. It made me feel as if they did not value my time, or my business I will go back to ATV at this beach, but will choose a different vendor. read more

FUN FUN FUN!!!! The sand dunes can be fun and also dangerous. There are cliffs so beware. It can be a bumpy ride. Here's a quick scoop. Rental: $70 for two hours for the 250 Gas: $5 Comes with helmet and goggles. Bring gloves and wear pants and tennis shoes. Oh, if you like to collect sea shells, bring a bag with you. There's bathroom stalls out there but it's not clean. read more

Just a great experience from start to finish. Read and called several option the area. Bj's had the most flexibility. Options for all ages. Flexible times. The staff was friendly and helpful. The ATV's were great. We even got our dog in a 2 seater. Everyone was super friendly. The kids had the best experience ever. read more

Wow, what a blast. One of my friends and I just spent the afternoon today at the dunes, after a brief but detailed introduction by the guys at BJ's. I can't recommend this enough. You start off by going to BJ's, which is a small, almost rundown-looking shack near the beach. Inside was a nice lady and a scary waiver that basically, as she said, means "You're to blame for everything if anything happens and you can't ever sue us." Okay, so scary, but worth it. We signed and headed over to the dunes to meet with the instructors. Note that you have to drive your car on the beach, along with hundreds of other cars, and there's really no lanes, so be careful. The instructors were friendly, joking, and had some great speeches designed to scare kids and teens into being careful with the ATVs. As fun as ATVs are, they are not a toy, and you CAN get hurt, so it's good to instill a little respect for them up-front. If you've never ridden an ATV before, they'll start you off on a basic model that doesn't feel very powerful at first. You'll get stuck going up the dunes from time to time. That's part of the fun, and we quickly learned how to avoid that most of the time. A few tips from my experience: 1) WEAR SUNSCREEN! You'll get burnt out there pretty easily. Be especially careful on the hands. I also recommend some light gloves to protect the skin (I didn't do this, but my friend did, and the difference between our hands is night and day). 2) Wear a light sweater. It gets cold and windy while driving around the dunes. It was decently hot today, but I wore a light jacket anyway and was glad I did. 3) Wear sunglasses, and ask for goggles to put on top of them. They gave us the goggles without asking, and we almost didn't wear sunglasses, but you'll want to be able to see well without being blinded and without sand flinging up into your eyes. 4) Be very careful where you drive. They'll drill this into you, but it's important. Small slopes become large drops fast, and there are people everywhere. We came close to collisions a couple times. 5) Don't be too scared of downward slopes. If in doubt, check the angle from the other side. Some scary-looking slopes were actually not bad at all, but you'll want to check. If you see a kind of "bridge" of sand with plenty of tire tracks, you're probably okay. 6) When shifting gears to climb a slope, don't shift while going up the slope, or you'll probably stop short of the top. Too many times I failed to reach the top because I thought I'd better shift as I was going up. Just didn't work. 7) If going on a weekend, try to go on a Sunday in the early afternoon. We were told this was the best time to go during the weekend, since most people are going home and there's fewer people on the slopes. 8) The fence is your guide to getting back out of there. There's so much open space that it's easy to get lost, but if you can find the back fence, you should be able to work your way back to the entrance to the place. Give yourself a good 20-30 minutes to do this, if you're pretty far out there, as you may get stuck on some dunes on the way back home. read more

Mike is a star employee. BJs best on the beach for price and overall product quality.

A business is only as good as the people you have working there - with the many options in the area, if not for my conversation with Lucy on the phone, I'm not certain I would have ended up here. Jenny (with a Y) is even lovelier to deal with. I could not have hoped for a funnier, more caring, and courteous young lady. Hey Jenny, quick question- give me a call - You ladies are the best !

BJ's ATV Rentals - Motorcycle Dealers Near Me - Oceano, California

SO FUN. Came here to take my boyfriend and his siblings ATVing and it was a crazy fun and exhilarating experience. I can't wait to do it again! The staff was really friendly and informative. The lady working the front desk was so sweet and gave me a free pair of gloves when she overheard me saying that I didn't want to blister up my hands. They were just raggedy used gloves but it saved my fingers from blistering during ATVing. Thank you so much if you're reading this!! :) I recommend getting the 250EX Semi Automatic Bike even if you don't have a lot of ATVing experience or don't know how to drive a manual car. It's really easy to get a hang of and it drives super fast! Some of the other people in our group got the fully Automatic Bikes and it was too slow and couldn't catch up with those on the Semi Autos. The fully Automatic bikes also tend to get stuck more when trying to go up hills, so get the 250EX instead if you can! The 2 hours went by so quick, I wish we had the ATV's for 3 hours instead!! I definitely plan on going back again sometime this summer!! read more

Great customer service, newer, clean and powerful AT V's! I rented a Honda 250 ex from BJ's this weekend to go quading on the Dunes at Oceano and was assisted by a very nice lady at the office. She explained the rental process and I was on my way to the dunes. When I arrived at the beach, their driver picked me up from the parking lot and drove me about 1 mile down the beach to where all the ATV's were staged. He gave me a quick safety lesson and I was on my way! My 2 hours went by so fast because quading here was SO MUCH FUN! Thanks to yelp, I was prepared and took the advice of previous yelpers. Here is what I found helpful: 1. Dress in layers if the weather if iffy. 2. Bring gloves (i used by batting gloves) 3. Bring sun glasses 4. Bring a bandanna or something as a liner for your helmet (because I'm positive the person before you was sweating in it) 5. If you are renting a manual shift quad, wear a boot of some sort because I wore tennis shoes and the top of my left foot was sore from shifting. Have fun and be safe! read more

They got the highest yelp reviews, so I went with BJ's. Overall, they were okay. We didn't have any issues with the equipment (unlike other yelp reviewers experiences at other ATV places). $$: We could have gotten a better deal with Angello's buy-one-get-one-free deal. For 2 hours with a 125cc and 250cc, we spent $115.There was an unexpected $5 beach fee if you decide not to ride their free shuttle. Nobody told us about that until we picked up the helmets at their store. I was a bit bummed they gave such short instructions and they didn't seem to be all that excited to explain the details of how to ride. They pretty much said: "Here's how you start the engine, okay now go!" For faithful yelp reviewers, here's what I would say for ATVing tips... 1. Wear the right gear: sunglasses, sunscreen, closed toed shoes, pants, and sports bras for the girls (dunes can be rather bumpy). 2. You need someone who can do heavy lifting if you get stuck on a dune. To avoid this, don't stop as you're trying to get up a dune. Just go full throttle. Go up dunes with a lot of traction marks. You'll know they are pretty stable. 3. Stop at the top of the dunes to make sure you can properly go down it. Riding the dunes was the best part of our trip. Not to be missed! read more

I've been coming here for 3 years always renting ATV!!! Love them will be visiting soon with a big group as usual thanks ladies for always helping us read more

Fun had by all, helpful and nice staff! Easy to understand directions provided. 250s in good working order and easy to maneuver for my 17 year old daughter and 15 year old son. read more

My friends and I came out here for a birthday outing. Most of the guys in our group ride motorcycles so ATVing came naturally to them. A girlfriend and I had no experience, however, and were feeling a little apprehensive about trying semi-automatics. The guy explaining the controls to us didn't do a great job. All I got from his demo is that you step down to shift down, and don't let go of the throttle. Oh...kay? Girlfriend and I looked and each other and decided to inquire about fully automatic ATVs instead, since we saw other yelp posts about them. We walked back to the "office" on the beach and asked about fully automatic RVs. They told us that those only have half the power of the semis (so get stuck in the sand dunes a lot) and recommended that we at least try the semis. We asked how to operate them. I kid you not, all they said was to shift down when dropping into dunes because you want to be in lower gears. And to shift up? They explained that as the engine gets louder, gears shift up. WRONG. SO WRONG. For the first 15 minutes or so, my friend and I trailed behind the others in first gear wondering how the other identical ATVs were going so much faster than us. It wasn't until our friends noticed that our engines were working too hard that they said we had to shift up to go faster. Guys, do a better job of explaining how to operate your ATVs. I mean seriously, you have one job!! Other than doing a terrible job explaining things, the people were nice and the service was great. Tips: 1) Just rent their goggles. Sunglasses look cooler but your sand-less eyeballs will thank you after. 2) Bring disinfectant to wipe down rented helmets. They also have helmets with gopro mounts installed! Nice touch. 3) Take their free shuttle from the parking lot down to the beach. It's not worth driving and paying the fee. 4) Always stop your ATV on a flat surface, or facing downhill. Facing uphill will likely get you stuck. 5) Make a reservation online if you have a big group. 6) Yelp check in for free gas! But you already knew that. ;) read more

4th of July reservation. No issues checking in until we got our bikes. We were left stranded for over an hour. Made over 5 calls to try and get someone to help us out. They kept telling us someone was on there way and still no show. They ended up confusing us with another call and had toataly forgeten about us. We didn't even get to enjoy half of the time we paid for. NEVER AGAIN WILL WE COME HERE. we are Central Coast natives so we come to Oceano all the time for ATV riding. This place will never get our Business or shall I say another Ripoff. No such thing as good customer service at this place. You are better off going to any of the other ATV rentals here in Oceano. read more

Thanks to Yelp I was able to find BJ's ATV Rentals! Made a reservation for twelve 250 Honda's in the afternoon with a $100 deposit - quick and painless. Upon arrival, we were able to get settled from the long drive we had and we were taken care of even after our reservation time. We were able to walk away with helmets, goggles, and transportation to the dunes for $75 a person (don't forget to ask for the group discount). The drive to the beach was something else. We were not sure if we were going to take Chevy Suburban through the water, but depending on driver; you can be in for a bumpy ride or a painless one (which is what we fortunately had on the drive back to the transporter station). It was a great 2 hours spent on the beach and the semi-automatic 250 Honda's worked really well. The price was very fair and it was a great time. read more

Showed up without reservations today and was accommodated quickly. We had a great time! Only thing is price- wish they had better rates like Arnie's, or a third hour for free like another place. But everyone was nice and helpful, and the bikes (although beat up) worked great. read more

BJ's ATV Rentals - Motorcycle Dealers Near Me - Oceano, California

I've never written a yelp review until my experience at this place. Stopped by last weekend, friendly service at the counter and ok service by the ATV instructors. Only rode for an hour and my ATV ran out multiple times. It ran out going up the dunes which was pretty scary and then just flat out ran out every minute as I was trying to get back to the drop off site. My boyfriend's ran out as well, but only once. I was pretty bummed and upset at how not fun the experience turned out to be, but what was more upsetting was having the instructor say we would receive a refund on my ATV and when we got to the front desk the woman said no. The instructor also rode my ATV and admitted it ran out on him as well, but it only didn't when he went full throttle, sorry I wasn't about going full throttle my entire ride as they are pretty fast and a bit scary, especially for your first time. The posted speed limit along the beach is 15 mph too so it's not like you'll be going full throttle there anyways. Beautiful beach and view, relaxing when my ATV didn't stop. read more

After getting suck in the sand and having to get a detailed car wash, we decided to go with BJ's instead of Arnie's so we can get a ride to the beach instead. You check in at the other location and pick up your helmets there. Then you get instructions to drive down to the beach area to park your car and walk down to the beach itself. The funny thing is, you need to walk "close enough to the water that you are almost touching it, then call me". So we did as she said and called and waited about 5 minutes before getting picked up. The guy who picked us up was very nice and prepared the rest of the group who has never rode before. We checked in and hopped on the bikes. Another quick instruction session and we were sent off. We all got the 250s which I think is decent enough. If you don't speed up a hill you will get stuck so make sure you have a heavy foot. We left at 4 and got back at 6 and got a ride back right away. The ladies at the other office were waiting for us to return our helmets, even though they close at 5. The wait to check in and get everything is much longer than Arnie's, but I would rather go with BJ's for the convenience of not having to drive on the beach. It cost the same as well but remember to check in to get $5 off!! read more

Really good experience overall with this rental company. Ladies in the front thoroughly explained the instructions to us and so did the gentlemen at the atv spot. For 2 hours, with gear rentals and atv, two people cost us $160, which isn't bad at all. $200 deposit for 2 people just in case of damage. read more

Wow! This was such a fun experience! First time ATV'ing, and BJ's ATV rentals made it seamless and memorable. I had planned this trip with another friend for months. I would definitely come back again! We rented the smaller ATVs, which make total sense for girls. It was roughly $50ish for 2 hours. I can't imagine dragging the bigger ATV out of the sand; We already had a difficult time dragging the smaller ATV. Tips: 1) Wear something with pockets so you can bring your phones (camera and to keep time) 2) Wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from sand; oh and sunblock! 3) Wear clothes that cover the arms and legs if your skin is sensitive--i would highly recommend long pants; long sleeves are optional, IMO. 4) Have someone who is comfortable driving their car in the sand since you need to drive in the sand to the ATV'ing area--right adjacent to the beach! (It is actually a 2-step process: 1) Go to the physical store to check in: pay, sign waivers, and retrieve your helmets. 2) drive on the beach to the ATV'ing site--about 2-3 miles away) 5) I am not sure what the age restriction is, but this activity is fairly dangerous, so I don't recommend anyone younger than 14. Some of the sand dunes are super steep... 6) If you get stuck and can't get yourself out of the rut, try reversing--it works 3/5 times; When all hope is lost, ask someone nearby to help drag your ATV out! Your fellow ATV'ers are super friendly :) Cons: Why not 4 stars? 1) I didn't feel like we were well instructed--more like "fend for yourself." We had to learn on the go. 2) The smaller ATVs were not in great shapes...they were older models read more

Unfortunately, I haven't had time to actually write a review when I went here like 3 months ago. I had a really good experience here, the only thing I didn't like is that some of their ATV's is kind off old so it kept on dying and now that I actually went and did my research on ATV's around the area they are kind off pricey. Like $20 more than other places. But other than that I had a really great time. They have awesome customer service by the time they picked us up at the waiting area and what not I had a really good time. No body was rude, and they start your time exactly when your on your ATV. oh and yeah not unless you really love doing this things 2 hours is enough because seriously your butt is going to start to hurt like hell after one hour especially if your not used to riding ATV's. read more

BJ is the place to go for ATV rentals this is my second time here! So it was father day's weekend and also a car show...my dumbass didnt know that we could make reservations and we didnt either, thinking we could just show up and get ATVs, which was what i did last time i came here I came here the first time cause my sorority used them for an event and recommended them and they offered me a small discount last time (very nice!) So i came back cause i had a good experiences and so when i got here to find out that they were all out of bikes, i was so heartbroken! and pretty much everywhere else was too! But the woman who works there took down my name and told me she'll call me if someone cancels or comes back early. Called other places and they were either DOUBLE the price or they were out too. after 20 minutes and feeling defeated, we headed out to a coffee joint when the woman called me back and asked how soon can i get back. How nice that she actually kept her words! Went back and she took care of us all! Be aware that you would have to drive out to the dunes and the parking (from the park) is $5. The rentals also has a $5 fee for gas too! Went out to the dunes and the guy gave us a mini lesson on the bikes and safety, all and all, very casual & friendly. Will recommend them to people! read more

First time riding ATVs in Pismo Beach and happy I choose to ride with BJ's! They answered all questions and they're rate are great! I will use them again. read more

GREAT PLACE! I was being a dare devil and ended up denting the metal rack on my ATV. I was told by the on-site representative that I would be charged for the damage, but when I went back to the shop to return my helmet the owner said they would be able to pop out the dent and I wouldn't be charged. Such a huge relief for a girl on budget. GREAT CUSTOMER SERICE! 5 stars! read more

Efficient in the office. My hubby and 2 kids (under 15) rented-after taking a safety course on-line, which we were told was required and yes, they asked for certification numbers of kids at registration. Then they give you helmets and you can either be driven to the beach location or drive yourself (5$ park fee), which we chose. We were given a brief lesson from the very nice young men on the beach and off we went for 2hours in the dunes. So fun! Crowded in the dunes after noon, but so much room to roam for us first timers. 225$ for 2hrs for 2 adults and 2 kids-this was including gas surcharge ($5 per atv). Bj's staff were cool and we will be doing business with them again. read more

I came here for celebrate my birthday with my friends. We were a pretty large group. I was clever and made a reservation. My party got the early bird special which means we pay for 2 hours but got to ride for 3. The service was quick, friendly, and thorough. I liked the fact that I was able to choose my own bike. The staff were helpful from beginning to end. Thanks BJ for making my experience super fun! Will definitely come back. read more

During our trip to Pismo last week, my husband and I rented two Honda 250s. The staff at the office were very nice. Even though we showed up about 15 minute before closing. They were nothing but delighted to help us. We were even shown around to view the different ATV options. We came back the following morning, were fitted with helmets and opted out of the goggles. Then we drove from the office to the pickup area at the end of Pier street. We were shuttled out to the dunes. You can drive out to them, but I would only recommend it if you have a 4-wheel drive. We saw many a vehicle get stuck, especially when the tide came in. When we arrived to the staging area, we were shown to our ATVS and given instruction on how to operate them. The staff as very helpful. It had been a while since I drove one, so I was a bit rusty. After several stalls I finally got it. We were off. It was a great time. The dunes are so much fun, and the area is massive. Some recommendations: 1. Bring a bandana and maybe gloves. I wore mine on my head. But if it is windy, you can use it to keep the sand out of you nose and mouth. 2. Wear a back pack. This allows you to bring water and extra sunscreen. 3. Go in the morning. Our appointment was at 830. There is less traffic on the dunes in the morning. It is cooler and tends to be less windy. 4. 2 hours is PLENTY. Buy the end your hands will be tired and if you were a bit crazy like I was your booty will be sore. I can't wait to come back and do this again. read more

Riding ATVs on the Pismo Dunes was super fun. Using BJs was good but can be better: -As many have mentioned, checking in and getting payment processed can take a while even with a reservation. The office itself is a little worn down which is not really a problem but is away from the beach. So after all the paperwork, you still have to drive, find a parking and a van will then take you to where the ATVs are. Staff was nice to us, especially the lady but the man got very irritated with some guests on the phone that got lost and was not as nice to them. -The van that drove us to where the ATVs are was very old and dusty. The sand blows everywhere, and I get it, it gets into the cars too, but still, it wasn't the most comfortable ride. -The training/instructions that were given to us for the ATVs were very brief. They didn't even teach us how to go reverse!! Luckily, one of the guys in our group knew and taught us. Also, my atv was fine but one in my group's kept turning off just for no reason. -We got a 10% discount and free gas with yelp check in. When we got to Pier Ave, we found another place that was actually about $10 less before the group discount. According to their website, they'd match competitors prices but since it was after the fact and we had a good overall experience, we just let it go. Overall, a good experience but next time I'll probably research other companies nearby. read more

Good service at the office and the guys on the beach were very professional and helpful as well. We signed papers and received helmets at the office, then drove to the beach entrance about two minutes away. Then we called the office again for pick up and a guy with a truck arrived to the gate in no time to drive us to their nearby location on the beach. When it's a low tide it's easy for any kind of car to drive up to their beach location on the wet sand, but I didn't want to drive my car on the sand. They have a Well maintained vehicles and simple fast procedures to get you riding. Yelpers checking in gets free additional hour, and before 12pm anyone who rents gets the additional hour as well. I didn't like that they have a minimum of two hours rent and that they don't allow sharing. They request that each person who rides pay two hours. That's why I took one star off. Beside that everything was excellent and we had a blast. read more
