Of all days, on the Fourth of July, I got to the beach early and scored great parking, only to discover my bike tire was flat. Seriously? Today? Not sure what to do, I decided to collect my thoughts and drown my sorrows with a burrito and horchata at Mr. Ruriberto's Mexican Food, one of the best burritos I've ever had, by the way. Jose told me Ray's Rentals across the street could fix my tire. Thankfully, even though they were slammed, Tim fit me in and fixed it. He was super friendly and helpful. Thanks for coming to my rescue on the Fourth of July! Highly recommend! read more

My husband and I happen to be passing by on our way back to rent some bikes when we found Ray's rental shop and stopped in. They were amazing. The rentals were way more affordable and great service. I will definitely be saving this for an annual trip back to Pacific Beach. We rode all the way to the jetty and back, then stopped in at the catamaran Inn for some drinks and brought the bikes back about three hours later it was a great day. read more

Ray's Rentals in Pacific Beach was the perfect shop for our stay in San Diego. The shop's location couldn't have been more convenient, just a quick walk from our Airbnb, which honestly made the decision easy. I didn't even bother price shopping, even though there were plenty of similar rental spots nearby, because the rates already seemed like a great value. Inside, the place is packed with every kind of recreational gear you could want; bikes of all kinds and sizes, surfboards, rollerblades, wetsuits, and more. It's clearly a well-stocked shop that caters to just about anything you'd want to do near the beach. What stood out most, though, was the staff. Everyone was super friendly and helpful, making the experience quick and easy from start to finish. Kiernan (and the gentleman who worked the next day) were awesome -- welcoming, upbeat, and made sure we got exactly what we needed before heading out. If you're staying near Pacific Beach, Ray's Rentals is absolutely worth checking out. Just a heads-up -- they do require a deposit for rentals, at least for the bikes. read more

Ray's Rentals - Pacific Beach - The pretty green county was my rental. Three speed bike very smooth. - Bike Rentals Near Me - San Diego, California

Rented an E-bike to cruise along the PB Boardwalk all the way to Belmont Park. Staff made it seamless and a chill experience. Highly recommend this bike shop read more

STAY AWAY FROM THIS SCAM OF A PLACE. We were told of a price. When we arrived were told that the rental price was $40 + a $500 deposit. Before paying it I decided to read the reviews and many people said that they never got there money back. So we walked to the store close by and got 2 bikes for $40 and no hidden fees. Be careful don't go there. read more

Rays did follow up and refund partial payment but because the only offer full refunds for 15min or less and we had the bikes for 30min.

Real easy rental shop. Workers are chilll. 2 hr rental, but ended up 2.5hrs ish and no extra charge. Wet suite and board for 2 came out $65. Pretty decent prices. You can park your car in the alley while loading up and same with drop off. Be sure to try your best to clean your boards but they chill bout it. Not too far driving distance from the beach area as well read more

I went in needing a new chain for my bike. Jacob spent 30 to 45 minutes helping me replace my chain and fix other minor issues that were a problem on my old bike. My bike run better than before the chain broke. Rays rental has been a staple in the Mission Beach community. They are great company. I would recommend them to anybody and everybody for rentals and repairs. read more

Ray has got it goin on in PB, folks. 5 Reasons to Rent @ Ray's 1. They open at 9AM. Where other stores in the area actually open at 10AM #earlybirdgetstheworm 2. Location, Location, Location. This rental shop lives a few blocks from the Pacific Beach boardwalk. 3. Pricing. The cruisers we rented were $10 for the day. They also had locks and baskets, which were clutch. 4. Helpful and quick staff. We were in and out. 5. While we only came in for cruisers, they had a wide variety of items to rent at a reasonable price! Had my kids been with us, they'd have had just what we would have needed, too. We stopped at Ray's Rental on a Friday morning, it took us a whopping ten minutes to select four appropriately sized bikes, two baskets, two locks and pay. Drop off was by 6PM. We were in and out then, too. No complaints! Stop by to get your cruiser on. read more

It's convenient and easy if you're in pacific beach. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the photo on the website for the beach chair - is not the same model or type as the chair I was given. I would have preferred the one in the photo. read more

We were able to get decent bikes for all four of us including 2 kids bikes here. They are reasonable and also provide helmets along with the bike rental price itself. Would recommend this place to rent bikes read more

Great little rental shop in a highly trafficked, easy to access area. We rented bikes for the day and had a great time cruising around town. They made the rentals easy - we ended up being out longer than anticipated and the process to pay a little extra was easy (and explained in advance). They helped us figure out where to start our journey and they also provided helmets. I didn't like that they record and keep your credit card info on file while you're gone - seems like a recipe for identity theft. Good spot for rentals if you're in the mood for a little adventure. read more

Shout out to Jessy! She's a pro and has excellent customer service. It was super easy to book a reservation and I got a group discount of 5 people off my rental surf boards and wet suits. Ray's Rental also has an online discount for those looking to save a few bucks. For $30 for an all day rental of surf boards and wet suits, it was worth every penny. This Ray's Rental store is also one block away from Pacific Beach so walking to and back was super easy. I'd definitely recommend people to go through Ray's for their surf rental needs! read more

Ray's was the perfect spot to rent bikes! We got to the beach a little late and most shops closed at 5pm. I was on a mission to rent a bike and luckily found Ray's (which closed later). We rented bikes for an hour, which cost only $10!! You can't beat $10 for an hour of riding on a beach cruiser. That hour was so beautiful and it was nice to see so many other people riding bikes as well. The owner was very kind and accommodating and even let us pick which color bike we wanted. read more

Have repeatedly returned to rent bikes at Rays for the past three years during each of our stays in North Mission Beach ; a total of 8 times. They are super nice and accommodating and always offer us a deal for extended stays. Bikes are well maintained and I've returned numerous times for a seat adjustment and they happily help me out. Lots of choices for Bike Rentals in the area, but their bikes are newer and better maintained and have the most comfortable seats as well; choose Rays! read more

First pros: The man who helped us rent bikes was relatively friendly. Covid 19 friendly Cleaned the bikes before we rented Cons: Bikes were terrible. Worse than bike-share bikes from nyc (citi bike) or la (metro bikes). Difficult to go up hills and couldn't go more than a few miles per hour. Would recommend renting higher quality bikes. Also relatively expensive at 20 dollars for 4 hours. I have rented much better bikes at lower cost in bigger cities like nyc. Close early at 6pm. read more

Rented a bike, basket, helmet, and lock for a week and a half, and it was great. The bikes are not new, flashy, or pretty - but they are in great working condition, and they're cheap to rent. Employees are super nice, too. I would 100% rent here again. If you're not looking to awe the beach crowd by riding a sparkly, rust-free bike, this is the place to rent from! read more

I'll definitely go back to Ray's Rentals if I'm in need of a rental in the future. Great location and helpful staff. I initially went here for rollerblade rentals. Turns out I'm no longer capable of rollerblading (especially on the busy pb streets)! I promptly went back to the store after this discovery, where they kindly swapped out my rollerblades for a bike. On top of that, they were more than willing pump the tires of my personal bike (which my friend was borrowing that day). Shout out to Jessie and Luis for being super helpful! read more

It's an alright place to rent a bike. Location is great, the price is good. The bike quality is dangerously awful. We rented a tandem bike and the front break was inoperable, luckily the pedal breaks were okay. When we told about it at the return, the front desk person indicated by their body language that nothing was going to be done about it. The chains were rusty as well and the pedals were not synchronized. Being vivid bikers my husband and I managed fine. And to be honest, this will remain a more memorable experience due to all these issues. And we would probably rent from the same place again if we're back at Pacific beach. read more

This place has plenty of bikes Great boards awesome shades and awesome food around weekly rentals aren't bad and the coupons are dope read more

Great service on rental bikes for Pacific Beach. Great prices, quality bikes. Different stores have different prices. Shop around

Samuel @ Pacific Beach location was FABULOUS! I rented a bike for the day & had a great time riding around all day. He was busy, but greeted & took care of everyone who came in. He had my bike completely wiped down & ready for me to use for the day. Astonishing service and truly an incredible employee. I will be back again. Thank you for taking care of me.

Expensive and bad service, do not go there, the staff is useless and the bike do not work well

Rented from a guy named Andrew who provided excellent service. He was very nice and knowledgeable. Rented a surf board and a wetsuit for 2 hours at a great rate. Will definitely rent from here whenever in Pacific Beach moving forward. -Alex read more

Ray's is a great place for all of your beach rental needs, and their rates cannot be beat!

Thank you for being open on Thanksgiving Day! Sergio was super nice and gave us a great rate - $10 for the whole day (2pm pick up, they were closing at 5pm). An extra $5 if we kept it til noon the next day. Free lock and helmet, and free basket with Yelp check-in. read more

Super helpful and best prices after calling around other bike shops. Highly recommend!!!

Slow service but friendly ... let us take the bikes out with 1:20 till closing time which was good!

Great rental company for surfboards , bikes in Pacific Beach Samuel and Luis run the shop great and really nice guys. Be back for more rentals when back in beautiful San Diego. read more

Outstanding and helpful service. Reasonable bike rental prices with helmet included. We got a four-hour rental, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. We can't say enough about the young man who waited on us. He bent over backwards to make sure all three kids' bikes, and all four adult bikes were in good shape and ready to roll. read more

Rented an adult bike with a child's seat on the back and a child's bike. Really quick and friendly service. We did a half day rental. Go on their website to the coupons section to save some money. read more

Rented Beach cruisers for labor day weekend! (Rental prices increase for the holidays!) They were friendly and speedy. Only one customer ahead of us. However their store front doesn't say ray's rentals just bike rentals (at lease we couldn't find it!) So we were a little confused as to if this was the right place. The check in deal worked! Got a free basket for our bags! My bike started off ok, but a couple miles into our ride, it started to make a metal scraping metal sound for the duration of our ride... a little scary, but people could hear me coming! If I need to rent a bike again in the pb area, I would go back. read more

It was a wonderful experience to rent all gear from them .jessie was such a sweetheart, super nice and very helpful. I didn't know what kind a board I needed and if I should get booties or not . definitely, I wasn't the easiest and fastest customer out there . Jessi game me all the help and time I needed with so much patience and care that make me feel special Who would believe that renting surfing gear can be such a fun thing to do. The surfboard was in topnotch condition and the booties were brand new. Thank you guy's and special thanks to Jessie read more

Easy transaction for a surfboard rental. Price is fair, and only demerits are no air conditioning in the shop and location is not on the boardwalk. Good overall experience read more
