Highlights

Uncover Sal Island on horseback with a savvy guide.


Whether you are an experienced rider seeking a high-level experience, or a complete beginner, you will feel at ease with our gentle, well-trained horses.


Ride along the white sandy beaches of Sal Island, wander through the Salt Mines, and leave your tracks across the desert landscape.


The 1-hour trail is best suited for beginner riders, as the entire experience is conducted at a relaxed walking pace, ensuring comfort and safety.
The 1.5-hour and 2-hour trails are also suitable for beginners; however, more experienced riders will have the opportunity to canter along the beach segments.


All rides start and finish at our stables, where you’ll have time to meet your horse and get comfortable before setting off.


Our small-group format, with multiple guides on horseback, ensures a safe and personalized experience tailored to different riding levels.


Hotel transfer service, helmets, and insurance are all included in the price.

Itinerary

  • Santa Marilha Horse Excursions

    2 hoursAdmission Ticket Free
    Meet our driver at the reception for the transfer to the stables set into the Botanical Gardens Viveiro. At the riding centre lockers will be at your disposal to leave your belongings and CE certified riding helmets will be given to you prior the ride (mandatory). The group of max 8 riders will be lead by several guides on horseback (1:2 ratio) to make sure that the ride will be tailored on your respective riding skills.  Now the adventure can start! Leave your tracks on the sand dunes and you will arrive at the "Big Salt Mines of Santa Maria". If you are taking part on the 1,5h or the 2h trails, you will leave the Salt Flats behind and you will head up to Kite Beach. An endless golden sand beach trek awaits you and the most experienced riders will have the chance to gallop through the surf. Less experienced riders or those who just want to relax and enjoy the landscape will ride gently along the shore at walking gait with the assistance of the guides.
