Boa Vista horse riding experience

4.6/5
331 reviews

Horseback riding along Boa Vista's beaches is as exhilarating as it gets. You can choose from an hour-long horse ride for beginners, a 90-minute ride including a trot or gallop for more experienced riders, or even a romantic couple's ride that includes up to 30 minutes at walking pace and time to share a bottle of wine atop a sand dune. It's an experience that gets you back in touch with nature in an environmentally-friendly way.


The open stretches of beaches that wind their way along Boa Vista's coastline will be your picture-perfect setting for a horse ride. Let the cobwebs be blown away by the sea breeze as you canter along the sand and soak up the panoramas from your elevated vantage point.


You'll be teamed up with your horse down at the stables and given all the equipment you need to ride off into the distance. It's great for adults and kids alike, so the whole family can join in on this one or make it a romantic ride for two.

    The riding experience was perfect for someone like myself who has never been on a horse before. Being on a beach made it more special. The track between the road & the beach, where we started and ended the ride, is a bit grim (it’s wasteland), but not sure much can be done about that.
