Best Electric Scooters For Touring Beach Towns

More compact than a bicycle and easier to ride, this is the perfect way to navigate new locations.

Electric scooters are the perfect way to get around when your destination is too short to drive, and too far to walk. Whereas bicycles tend to be cumbersome and take up too much space, part of the growing popularity of electric scooters is that they're compact and can be easily stored. Many models are even collapsible and can be easily folded to toss in a duffle bag or trunk.

So, whether you're looking for an easy and convenient way to zip around a lazy beach town or even commute to the daily grind, you may find that an electric scooter is an ideal option for you. Just please, ride responsibly and always be sure to wear a helmet.
