This two-hour horseback adventure takes you through some of Sal’s most breathtaking landscapes. Begin by crossing the wide desert plains before reaching the impressive Salt Flats of Santa Maria, where a short climb rewards you with a panoramic view over the shimmering pans. The journey continues toward Kite Beach, where colourful kites dance across the sky during windy days, painting a vibrant picture of Sal’s energetic coastal life. From here, an endless stretch of golden sand invites riders of all levels to enjoy the shoreline at their own pace.
As the beach trail leads you toward the base of Serra Negra Natural Reserve, the scenery shifts into serene flatlands dotted with green bushes and a quiet creek—often visited by cows, donkeys, and native Cape Verdean birds. The route is designed to be both relaxing and adventurous, offering a perfect balance for novice, intermediate, and advanced riders alike. Whether you choose to walk, canter, or enjoy thrilling gallops by the surf, this experience promises an unforgettable way to discover the southeastern beauty of Sal Island.

Outstanding riding school. I booked in for a lesson and was looked after so well by Lisa and Naomi. It is a beautiful location, their horses are just the sweetest, I had Paddy an absolute dote. I’ll definitely be back and thanks so much.

This farm is AMAZING!! I was visiting Dublin and decided last minute I’d like to go ride while I was here. Lisa and her team were so kind and welcoming and squeezed me in. The horse I rode, Evan, was so beautiful and kind and all their horses were well behaved and clearly loved and taken care of. Jesse led our trek and did amazing and made sure everyone was comfortable. Truly an unforgettable experience surrounded by kind and caring horse people and lovely horses. Since I was visiting they even had boots and a hat I could wear which was perfect. Though I am an experienced rider, their horses and team would be perfect for all levels and ages.This is the place if you’re looking for a lovely ride through the country or beach!
