Half Moon Bay Horseback Riding Vacation

Remember the movies where the beautiful woman rides horseback on the beach? Her blonde hair blows in the wind; the hooves of the horse splash waves of brilliant blue water onto the soft white sand as the rider travels off into the sunset? Well, I can’t promise you a sunset with a gorgeous woman on horseback. However, Sea Horse Ranch in Half Moon Bay, California does deliver on a horseback riding vacation on the Northern California coast.

Horseback Trail Riding on Poplar Beach

Whether you are a beginning rider or an accomplished equestrian, equitrekkers will safely enjoy a beach ride on over seven miles of horse-friendly trails in Half Moon Bay, California. My guide at Sea Horse Ranch took me through a creek crossing and along the bluffs of Sunset Beach, down to the sand and waves of Poplar Beach.

Horseback Beach Riding at Sea Horse Ranch

Riding a horse on the beach is a highlight for many horse lovers. Sometimes the ocean waves and loud pounding surf are scary to horses unfamiliar with the ocean. Sea Horse Ranch introduces all of their horses to the beach so that riders of any level will feel safe and secure on their California coast horseback riding vacation. If you have your own horse, you’ll want to read my post on Coastal Horseback Adventures, where riders bring their own horses for an overnight stay in Half Moon Bay, California.
