18. South of town there is this funky museum.
If you find yourself in need of an indoor activity, it's worth considering. A couple carved a quite spacious home out of solid rock. This was in the 1950's. It has been preserved just like when they lived there, so it's like walking into a time warp. Very strange. They give tours on a regular basis. The bathtub is even solid rock.

Also, there is an independent bookstore that is quite good. It was there the spring before last, at least. Coffee, muffins, cookies, and and excellent selection of books along with a comfy sofa.

And, Eddie McStiffs makes its own beer and has decent food. The Jailhouse has the best breakfast.

I forget the name of the national park north of town, but is fairly
close and has easy or longer hikes, or just drive through.

There are a couple of places to watch the 4-wheelers, that don't require a 4 wheel drive to get to. The locals can tell you. One is just past the sky ride on the river road. I think the sky ride is closed now. But there is a gondola (I think) as you come into town from the north. And a water play place.

Yes, I like Moab. And I don't bike or 4-wheel, so I find other things to do. Have fun. :D

And they have a website. I don't have a link, I usually just google Moab.
