Welcome, and thank you for booking your Horses on the Beach experience

A few minutes here will make your ride smoother and safer. Please read before you arrive.

What to wear

• Closed-toe shoes are required. Boots or sneakers are perfect. No sandals or open toes.
• Long pants are strongly recommended to prevent chafing.
• Dress in layers for coastal weather. It is often cooler and windier at the beach than inland.

Weight and fit

• For the safety of our horses, riders must be under 240 lb.
• Tell us in your intake form the height and experience of each rider so we can match the right horse.

Safety basics

• Helmets are provided and required for riders under 18, and available for everyone.
• Always approach a horse from the front or side, never directly behind.
• Your guide stays with you the entire ride. Follow their cues and speak up any time you feel unsure.
• Keep a calm, quiet voice around the horses. Sudden noise or movement can startle them.

What the day looks like

• Arrive 15 minutes early to check in, meet your horse, and get fitted.
• Your guide gives a short ground lesson before you mount.
• The ride follows the trail and beach at a relaxed walk, ideal for beginners.

Before you come

• Complete your Pre-Ride Intake form so we have your rider details and emergency contact.
• Sign your release waiver if you have not already.

See you at the barn. You are going to love it.
