Guide, helmet, horse
Ride with your own private group on a guided horseback outing along the shoreline at Peters Point Beach access. You’ll get basic riding instruction before your guide leads you onto the beach.
Riders must be age 13+ and at least 4 ft tall, weigh under 240 lbs, and wear a helmet. Closed-toed shoes are required, and long pants are recommended.
Full refund or rebook with 48 hours notice. If you cancel within 48 hours of the ride date, no-shows, or late arrivals who miss the start time, no refund or rebooking and you will be charged full price. Full refund or rebook if Happy Trails cancels due to weather or unforeseen circumstances.
Arrive 15–20 minutes early so staff can prepare you for the ride and have you sign waivers.
All riders must be age 13+ and at least 4 ft tall, and each rider must weigh under 240 lbs.
Wear closed-toed shoes (required) and long pants (recommended). Men should wear briefs or an athletic supporter, and women should wear a sports bra to reduce discomfort from the horse’s motion.
Travelers consistently rave about the exceptional care given to the horses here, noting how friendly, well-trained, and gentle they are. The guides, including Miranda, Kelsi, Debbie, Nadia, and Stephanie, earn special praise for their professionalism and ability to make beginners feel completely at ease. Many first-time riders mention feeling nervous initially but quickly gaining confidence thanks to patient instruction and supportive coaching throughout the ride. The beach rides themselves create magical moments, with sunrise and sunset tours being particularly popular for anniversaries and special occasions. Guides go the extra mile by capturing photos during the experience and sharing them promptly. The horses respond beautifully to commands and handle various rider skill levels with remarkable calm. Visitors repeatedly mention plans to return, which speaks volumes about the quality of the experience from booking through the actual ride itself.
Stephanie did a great job this morning. My wife and I had a great time. Horse back riding on the beach is a beautiful experience. Happy Trails has beautiful and healthy horses. Tact was in great shape and saddles are very comfortable. I would recommend this adventure with happy trails to anyone!
