Overview

Make your way along the beach and watch the sun and moon alternate and then we have a chance for a dip in the ocean with one of the horses who is not afraid to get wet, so don’t forget your bathing suit!
You will ride along a gravel path through the jungle to the beach and then along the beach with the waves touching the horses’ feet. After a photo session stop with the turquoise ocean in the back ground the ride goes on to a bar in Bergantin beach for a break and possibility to buy souvenirs (or other drinks than included in the tour).
If the ocean and streams are applicable you will be offered to swim with a horse which is a great experience. Keep in mind, although, that sometimes this is not possible due to strong waves and streams. We always keep Safety First!

What to expect

  1. Malecon Puerto Plata
    Pass by
    The malecon of Puerto Plata borders the Atlantic Ocean for almost 5 km. It is a place of walk very appreciated by the inhabitants of the capital of amber. A colossal statue of Neptune, almost 7 meters high, watches over the city with its trident. It was erected on an island facing the beach in 1971. A walk on the malecon allows you to admire this beautiful statue, but also the sea, the beach, the locals playing dominoes and the young people gathering in their hundreds
  2. Puerto Plata
    3h
    The ride is suitable for beginners and experienced riders and your tour will start with pickup from your hotel by safari truck. After a short drive you will arrive at the beach where the horses are waiting saddled up and ready to go. Your friendly guide will help you with instructions and introduce your horse to you and then comes this magical moment that you have been waiting for.
    Make your way towards a secluded beach as the day starts to cool down. Nothing better than seeing the sun sink into the ocean while riding on a soft sandy beach breathing pure and invigorating salt air. Experience the sunset, the moon and the stars while the waves gently come to the shore its magical .
