Horse safaris

Local operator

One of the loveliest ways to see the Eastern Shores is from the back of a horse. Local guided rides take you through the southern grasslands among zebra, wildebeest and impala, and combined bush-and-beach rides bring you down onto the sand, where in whale season you may spot humpbacks out in the deeper water.

Rides suit beginners and experienced riders alike, with sensible age and weight guidelines.
