Welcome to Young's!
The best Nantucket bike rentals and car rentals are at Young's Bicycle Shop, a fourth generation family owned business that has been renting bikes, cars, and Jeeps to the island's visitors since 1931.
We offer the highest quality rental bikes on the island and pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service so you have the best possible Nantucket experience. Check out our bike rental and car rental services as well as our Nantucket vacation guides, and start planning your trip today.
Whether it’s biking to Cisco or driving a Jeep to Great Point, we're excited to show you “The Cycle-Logical Way To See Nantucket."
Adult cruiser bikes
Our most popular rental bike by far, our cruiser bikes are super comfy and versatile hybrids that are great for riding all over the island. These bikes accommodate riders from 4'11" to 6'3" and come with 8 gears, a bell, a rear rack for your beach towel and other gear, and suspension for any cobble stones and bumps you may find. Add a free basket for additional storage!
Adult mountain bikes
If you want to get off the beaten path and explore Nantucket's many dirt roads and narrow sandy trails, our mountain bikes are a great choice. With sizes that fit folks 5'0" to 6'2" and up, everyone from younger adventurers to fully grown up kids can enjoy some off pavement terrain. These bikes come with a shock absorbing suspension fork, a bell, and a luggage rack for gear.
Electric bikes
We also rent a limited quantity of electric, pedal-assist bikes so you can see more of Nantucket with less effort. Perfect for riders who would appreciate a little help pedaling or those who want to ride as many miles as possible, these e-bikes are a blast. The step through frame is easy to hop on and off so stopping to take pictures and smell the hydrangeas is a breeze.
Kid's bikes
Perfect for kiddos who want to pedal themselves, we have a complete range of kids sizes for all ages whether they're just learning or they have a need for speed.
Bikes with child seats
We rent adult bikes equipped with child seat attachments for children at least a year old and under 40 pounds. It's a simple way to bring kids who are too young to pedal along for the ride.
Child towing attachments
We also rent trailers and trail-a-bikes if you're looking for additional ways to bring kids along. We always recommend the two wheeled Burley trailer as it's super stable and it's comfy enough that kids often come back fast asleep!
Rent a car or Jeep and explore more of the island
Young's rents 4 door Honda Civics and 4 door, 4x4 soft top Jeeps with beach stickers for driving on designated Nantucket beaches. We're also conveniently located right at the ferry for easy pick up and drop off. Whether you need day to day transportation or you're looking for an unforgettable island adventure, our auto rentals will help you get the most out of your vacation.
