Riding a horse on the beach was one of those things I have always wanted to do. We had such an amazing experience with Equine Adventures. My two children and I (Ages 16 and 10) all had a blast. I believe our tour guide was Lilly (forgive me if I am wrong) and she was fantastic. Our horses: Buzz, Jack... More

WOW! My boyfriend and I have gone to many riding places on vacation and this one topped them all! Not only do you go through a National Forest but you then arrive on the Beach. You don't have to stay in single file, you get some freedom, and they let you canter along the beach if you wish (i did)!... More

We just visited Equine Adventures yesterday and had a blast. The people are very nice and the horses well kept. My 10 & 13 year old kids had a ball. This is the only novice riding experience that I know of where you can actually run the horse (let alone on a secluded beech). An experience you will never forget.....Just... More

This was my second ride with Equine Adventures and it was just as wonderful as the first time. The facility, the horses, and the guides are all top notch. Riders are thoughtfully paired with horses compatable with thier ability and the guides are sure to give you a few tidbits about your horse's personality. The guides in particular were friendly,...

Our family of 4 ( 2 parents and 2 "tweens") really enjoyed this horseback riding adventure--especially the section on the beautiful open beach of Frisco-- and we had a wonderful local guide- very professional, with great horse handling skills and a friendly maturity well beyond her years- thank you for an unforgettable experience!

This was an absolutely priceless experience. They had a horse for every skill level and the guides were super friendly and helpful. Our tour lasted about 3 hours and it was reasonably priced. Guides Heather, Cara, and Micki were wonderful!! They were very experienced riders and were working towards equine related degrees. These ladies know their stuff. If you go,... More

Being local to the Outer Banks, we had never done a horseback ride on the beach, and thought we should at least try it! It was fantastic and the guides were very nice. My husband and I both enjoyed the ride. More

If you like to get off the beaten path, take in the scenery that's exclusive to the barrier islands, and want to experience all this in a way that is so down to earth that it makes you feel as if you've traveled back in time, Equine Adventures is the right thing for you. Nowhere else can you experience the... More
