OCEAN WALK (Vilankulo Only): USD 70.00 | 25% off for children 12 & under riding with a parent/guardian.
The ride starts on the beach with a medium to full tide and is an absolute favourite. With our unique hands-on interaction, you will lead your horse into the shallow waters. Our horses love to splash and wallow, there is always a sense of excitement as they thrash the water, then lay down to roll.
There is time for pictures before mounting up on a second horse bareback, then wading chest deep into the blue turquoise seas on our Ocean Walk. You will meander along the coastline looking out at colourful dhows and sandy beaches.
