We do two guided rides a day, morning ride at 9:30am and an afternoon ride at 3:30pm during winter hours, 4:30 during the summer. We can take all experience levels from 6 years old and up (if they are younger they must be experienced riders). There is an extra charge if someone must be led. Everyone rides their own horse or pony, no double riding. We have a 200 pound weight limit. Groups are never more than 12 riders. Private rides are available for an additional fee. Helmets are available and are required for children 17 and under. We ride along quiet dirt roads and trails to Long Bay Beach, a 4 mile long secluded beach. We do not do nose to tail type rides, and more experienced riders are given the chance to trot or canter along the beach depending on the tides. The shallow waters of the Caicos Banks off Long Bay make it an ideal place to take your horse into the ocean. You can book a one hour ride or a 90 minute ride. We can arrange for transportation to and from your hotel. Reservations are required. A Visa or Mastercard number is required for all reservations, as well as weights and experience levels of all riders in your group so that we can properly assign horses to riders. We are a fully insured and licensed business in the Turks and Caicos Islands. « less

“You'll remember this day forever!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 May 2013 NEW

I almost didn't book my ride but am super glad I did. Definately one of the highlights of my visit to Turks. They will pick you up from your hotel for an extra $10 ( and they are on time!). From the minute we arrived at the stables it was evident that this was a very well organised business. All... More

“In Love with Romeo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 NEW

My group loved loved this ride. The water was amazing.... the horses were "real" horses and I took Romeo up into a full run on the beach.... and his kick out (mini buck) let me know he was feeling good too. :) The staff are a great group of girls who remind more of friends than leads. They are experts... More

“Best fun to be had on Provo”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 May 2013

You can"t beat the fun of riding horses in the surf. The horses are well cared for. They are well groomed and obviously well cared for. The staff took great pains to match each customer with the right horse based on experience and size. This gave me additional confidence because my experience and age made my riding ability questionable. We... More

My girlfriend wanted to do this, and you guys know how THAT is......so, we did it. We had a GREAT time! We have ZERO riding experience, and the staff was wonderful and patient.

“Very Professional”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 May 2013

Looked after all the guests with care and efficiency, everyone complimented on how loved the ponies are, and how much time the guides took to pare the rider with pony to get the perfect fit! Amazing beach to ride on

“Fun mother/daughter outing”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 April 2013

After confusion on the reservation between our hotel and them, the outing turned out great. Our hotel claimed they are difficult to deal with on reservations. Neither rider was experienced but felt very comfortable and had a lot of fun riding on the beach and in the water. There were also some great photo ops. The whole thing was very... More
