08 Aug 2026 | Horse riding on the beach at Santa Maria del Focallo
A dream on horseback
I don’t know where to begin, because it was one of those experiences that really stays with you.nThe ride began in the silence of the park. Just us, the horse and the soft clatter of hooves on the path. We were riding at a walking pace, and at one point I realised I was breathing in time with the horse. It was pure peace. You feel small and big at the same time: small in the face of nature, big because you feel part of it.nThen you emerge onto the beach.nSeeing the sea open up before you whilst you’re in the saddle is something that defies description. The soft sand beneath the hooves, the waves breaking just a few metres away from us.nAll this is also down to the owners, wonderful people who instantly put you at ease. They look after everyone – both the horses and the people – with rare care and kindness.nYou can tell they put their heart and soul into what they do. A place where you feel at home.

A chance for anyone to enjoy a lovely sunset horse ride on the beach
What an incredible experience this was. The whole family was there to guide us. We were given a brief introduction to the horses, their background and how they interact, and Luigi quickly translated any questions we had using his digital translator. His whole family first took us on a walk through the reserve so that we could get to know the horses before we ended up walking them to the beach. The experience is suitable for everyone, especially beginners. The horses are well-trained and behave exceptionally well. There was no fear, no sudden reactions and no problems whilst riding. We were matched with a horse suited to our height and weight, and then we set off. My partner had been scared following an old horse-related accident, but this experience helped her reconnect with horses. What a wonderful experience. My only suggestion is that protective gear and helmets should be provided. After all, these are animals and anything can happen.
