CANOA BEACH HORSE RIDING TOUR
Who hasn’t dreamed of feeling the wind rushing past them as they gallop along a stunning tropical beach? Canoa beach is blessed with 17 kilometres of uninterrupted coastline making it the longest beach in Ecuador. Depending on the tides, it is sometimes also the widest.
We are in the perfect position to make the dream a reality. There is no other horse riding tour operator that offers tours along the coast of Ecuador. The entirety of this tour is spent on the beach. Nowhere else in Ecuador can you experience rides and views like this! Our exhilarating famous beach ride on Canoa beach is just one of the memorable rides we offer at Cabalgatas Canoa.
You have three options for beach rides. There’s a 2 hour ride from Canoa to Briceño or vice versa or a 3.5 hour ride that explores the entire length of the beach from San Vicente to Canoa. Our most popular ride is the 3 hour ride, starting and ending in the countryside outside of Briceño.
You’ll experience a remarkable view of the Canoa cliffs and enjoy a different side of the beach. The southern end of the beach is different to the northern end in the village; with fewer tourists and the beach feels deserted with lots of bird life to see. We like to take the horses to splash in the waves and we can gallop if you would like to.
We try to plan to finish the ride at sunset; the day is a little cooler later in the afternoon and what better way to finish an amazing beach ride than to watch the sun set over the Pacific Ocean? Our beach rides are really something to remember, book yours today!
