WHAT YOU VISIT
- Horseback ride in Protected Nature Area
Enjoy a guided horseback riding adventure along a rocky trail, the entrance to a protected nature area. After you arrive, you'll meet your guide who will offer a safety lesson in horseback riding. Then, you'll don your helmet, mount your gentle horse and follow your guide. Marvel at magnificent views and experience the stunning flora and fauna of this unique eco-system. The vistas are marvelous since you are never far from the ocean, and on clear days you can spot neighboring islands.

When you reach Cay Bay you will be able to take a short ride along the beach and you can even take your horse right into the water! They love a refreshing dip in the sea and you will thrill to the experience.

PHOTO OPPORTUNITY
Traveling at a slow and steady pace allows you to experience the unspoiled land and gorgeous scenery of the protected nature area. Once a cattle farm, it's now home to a variety of cacti.

WHAT YOU SEE ALONG THE WAY
As you ride along the well-worn trails, you can spot the neighboring islands of St.Barts, Saba and St. Eustatius.
