This 3-hour beach horse riding experience in Mallorca begins at the stables in Can Picafort, where you’ll be welcomed by professional instructors and introduced to your horse. After a clear safety briefing and riding introduction, you’ll have time to get comfortable in the saddle before setting off. The horses are calm and well trained, making the start of the ride relaxed and confidence-building, although some previous riding experience is recommended due to the overall duration of the excursion.
Once on the move, the route heads towards Son Bauló, where the real beach riding begins. You’ll ride along the shoreline with the sea beside you, crossing sand dunes and open coastal stretches while enjoying wide views over Alcudia Bay. This part of the tour offers one of the most memorable moments of the experience, combining freedom, nature and the unique sensation of riding a horse by the sea.
The journey continues towards the protected natural area of Son Real, passing ancient ruins and old watchtowers that give a glimpse into Mallorca’s history. After reaching Son Serra de Marina, the return route takes a different path inland, following peaceful pine forest trails back towards Can Picafort. This circular itinerary allows you to experience beach, dunes, forest and countryside in one single ride, making it one of the most complete and varied horse riding tours in Mallorca.
Customer Reviews – Beach Horse Riding in Mallorca
After reading some online reviews about horse riding tours in general, we were careful when choosing where to book, and we are so happy we picked this one. The professionalism of the staff stood out immediately. They explained the route, the safety rules, and how to handle the horses in a calm and friendly way. The beach riding itself was magical, especially with the views over Alcudia Bay. We also loved passing through Son Real and learning a little about the history of the area. Most importantly, the horses looked genuinely well cared for and the entire atmosphere was respectful both towards clients and animals. We would definitely do it again.
What I liked most about this tour was the balance between adventure and safety. The ride is long enough to feel like a proper excursion, but at no point did it feel chaotic or dangerous. The guides clearly know what they are doing and gave excellent instructions before and during the ride. Riding through the dunes and forests after the beach section made the experience very varied and interesting. Also, the horses were in excellent condition — clean, calm, and obviously accustomed to these routes. One of the highlights of our holiday.
We booked this as a family activity and were honestly impressed by how professional everything was. My daughter was nervous at first, but the instructors were extremely patient and supportive. The horses were gentle and easy to ride, even for people without much experience. The scenery was stunning, especially the long stretch along the coast and the protected area of Son Real. During the ride there were regular stops to make sure everyone was fine, and water was available when needed. The whole experience felt safe, authentic, and very enjoyable.
I have done horse riding excursions in different countries, and this was by far one of the best organized. Safety was clearly taken seriously from the beginning with a proper briefing and careful matching of horses to riders. The route itself was incredible: beach, dunes, pine forests, and countryside all combined in one experience. The horses looked healthy, relaxed, and clearly well trained. We never saw any rough treatment or stress. Quite the opposite — the guides treated the animals with respect and patience. Highly recommended if you want a real nature experience in Mallorca.
This beach horse riding tour was honestly one of the most beautiful experiences we had in Mallorca. From the beginning, the instructors made us feel very comfortable and safe. They took time to explain everything clearly before we started, and you could immediately see how calm and well cared for the horses were. Riding along the beach near Son Bauló with the sea next to us was absolutely unforgettable. What we appreciated most was how attentive the guides were throughout the entire 3-hour ride, always checking if everyone was comfortable and adapting the pace when needed. Very professional team and very well organized.
Alle waren sehr freundlich, die Pferde waren toll und der Strandtritt traumhaft!
Excellent hack to a part of the country that I had no knowledge about and would not have been to if it had not been on horseback. The staff were extremely friendly and the horses knew their job well. Even though we were in a mixed group the staff were able to allow those of us that could, the chance to have a few gallops. Excellent experience and I would highly recommend!
Perfekt 👍🏻
It was really good, the horses were beautiful and the gallop was fast and great, it is perfect memory I really like it
The ride wasn’t planned. You also need to be quite skilled to gallop along the beach. There’s almost no questions asked or explanation given.
