With Beryl bays conveniently dotted around the city centre, it's easy to explore Southampton’s many galleries, maritime heritage sites, vast shoreline, or shopping and leisure facilities at West Quay by bike or e-bike. Make cycling part of your morning commute with bays at the station, or zip to the University campus. The city’s seven waymarked routes, as well as National Cycle Network routes 2 and 23, make pedalling around Southampton a breeze.
