The most glorious horse back beach riding holiday in the world! Riding Vacations in South Africa

Africa/Indian Ocean > South Africa > Eastern Cape > Kei Mouth Wild Coast

This is one of those rare riding holidays that has it all – From beach riding and African rural village life to wild life viewing on nearby game farms.
Ride along deserted beaches and across rolling countryside.
We explore the countryside, on some days; we meander along the deserted beaches, cantering into sleepy coastal villages for a great pub lunch.
On others, we explore the rolling hills and savanna grasslands that are the home to a kaleidoscope of gaily painted rondavels that form the heart of the Transkei landscape.
Long stretches of deserted beach beg for a gallop along their pristine sands.
If you and your horse need to cool off, you can go for a swim in the sea or lagoon.
Once you reach the Great Kei River, a pontoon will transport you and your horse into rural Africa where sleepy tribal villages await you. As you ride through undulating hills, comfortable hotels are nestled in coves along the coast, providing perfect stop off points for horse and rider.
