Ride The Beaches of Amelia Island

Instructor was friendly and guided us well. She was also very through with her explanations and made riding a breeze. Took pictures of us so we wouldn’t have to worry about dropping our phones in the water. Great experience!!!

Had such a good time, Cassie was amazing, she was able to size everyone up and gave everyone the perfect horse for them. Booking was super easy, I simply texted Debbie and she told us she had openings and we went to her website and booked the time we wanted.
The horses were controllable and she let us move around as we pleased which was nice. Other companies passed us and they were in strait lines with helmets on (didn’t look very fun! Lol)
We will definitely be back for more!!!

I had a great time riding horses on the beautiful beaches of Amelia Island. Our tour guide was great; she took a lot of pictures for us and she made sure to look out for dolphins so she could point them out to us (and we did see a few!). The horses were nice and gentle so this tour is completely appropriate for inexperienced horse people; I hadn’t been on a horse in many years and my fiancée was riding for he first time.
My only gripe about the tour is that it’s on the pricey side– 90 per hour plus a 60 dollar uncharge for sunrise and sunset rides. Granted, riding on the beach is a unique experience that you can’t do just anywhere but I’ve seen significantly cheaper beach horseback ride tours in my home state of NC (and our beaches are gorgeous too!). To be fair though, I don’t know this area well so maybe Amelia Island as a whole is expensive. I’m still very happy with the experience I had but I wish I could have afforded to do the sunrise or sunset ride. Maybe that’ll be on my agenda once I finish school and (hopefully) make more money :)

I love the beach. I also love horses, and riding them on the beach was even more awesome than I’d imagined! When my husband told me he’d booked this ride as a surprise for me, I smiled, but inwardly thought, «great, plodding, barn sour horses, and you only go at a walk, nose to tail behind your leader». And to be honest, I would still have enjoyed that because everything is better with horses lol, I was SO wrong!
They did a great job at matching horse and rider from what I could tell. I ride a gorgeous palomino QH named «Halo» who was anything but plodding or barn sour lol! He was intelligent, responsive, beautifully trained, and definitely not a robot! He had his own ideas, and want afraid to share them, but didn’t take it too hard when I vetoed lol!
We rode out with Cassie, and she was fabulous! She took time to photos of everyone riding, encouraged the newbies, and basically just made sure everyone was safe. We did NOT ride single file, and those of us who knew how to ride were allowed to trot and canter at our own pace.
So if you want to see the beautiful beaches of Amelia Island in a totally different way, make your reservations and prepare yourselves for a spectacular ride. When we come back, I plan on a sunset ride

Such a great time riding today. Bright blue sky, rolling waves and a nearly deserted beach. The staff, horses and ride all top notch. Can’t wait to go back for a morning or sunset ride. Online booking simple and quick. Just show up, mount up and hit the beach.

DON’T MISS riding with Chelsea and Cassie. They are fantastic, easygoing and extremely personable guides, and the ride along the ocean was just beautiful. We took the last tour of the day and riding as the sun was setting was magical.
Even if you’ve never ridden a horse, these ladies will choose one that you’ll feel comfortable on. This was the highlight of our trip!

My wife and I just get done riding with Chelsea. She was a ton of fun and super patient with my wife who was a bit timid as a first time rider. My horse, Cookie, was a little more adventurous so I had a great time getting wet in the ocean and so did he. We will definitely do this again when we make it back to Amelia. It was a great honeymoon adventure.

My husband & I enjoyed a spectacular sunset ride with our guide, Cassie. We had been vacationing in Saint Augustine & took a chance driving an hour & a half to ride Amelia Island… We’re so glad we did! Cassie was extremely welcoming, informative & able to make us feel completely at ease with our horses. She even used our smart phones to capture amazing pictures for us, free of charge! Debbie made the reservation process very smooth & was accommodating to our limited availability. Thanks so much for the wonderful ride & lasting memories Cassie & Debbie! We will most certainly be back!

My wife and I had a fabulous time today riding two beautiful and well cared for horses, on Amelia Island. Cassie our guide, was well mannered, laid back, not too strict but at the same time very attentive to the needs of the horses.
We were able to trot and canter as we pleased, which was incredible compared to other rides we’ve taken elsewhere that made us walk in a single file line. All in all it was worth every penny and I’m so glad we decided to venture out with them.
You’re crazy not to take advantage of this opportunity, especially with a great company and wonderful guides. This is one experience we’ll never forget!

Fantastic e-​mail and phone response, went way above and beyond to make our ride happen. Excellent horses, well matched to our abilities or lack thereof.
Debbie was very nice and is quite a good photographer, discretely taking pics of us and then airdropping them to our iphone. Great ride, steps from the Ritz Carlton hotel, very nice.

It was our first time riding horses and Debbie made it a great experience! She was great to work with, very responsive, and has a fun personality! :) Would def recommend!

I contacted Debbie via email and was very pleased by her timely response to all of my questions. The day of the ride was amazing, just as promised! The guide, Cassy gave a informative briefing and made sure that I was comfortable with the ride. I had no experience so she took her time to explain how I should handle the horse. I can’t say enough about the trip and I will definitely do it again! Contact Debbie!
