Page: Horseback Riding in Vanuatu - Ride on Beaches or through Tropical Forest |
If you're looking to explore Port Vila, but not one for doing it on your own two feet, then horseback riding is an excellent option. The Club Hippique Adventure Park provides fun and exciting horseback rides that allow you to see the rainforests as well as a rare chance to walk through the crystal blue waters and ride down the white sand beaches.
The Erakor Beach Day Tour is one option that most will enjoy. The ride includes a tour through the tropical rainforest and a ride along the white sand beaches of Erakor Beach. You will also get a BBQ lunch on the beach and have the opportunity to ride bareback through the crystal blue waters.

Horseback riding on the beach is a fun way to explore
Port Vila, available at Club Hippique, Vanuatu. |
Although, most come here to ride the horses and it doesn't matter if you've never ridden a horse before. All levels of riders are catered to and the stables features horses that are ideal for the beginner as well as the seasoned horseman or horsewoman.
Safety helmets are provided, but you should plan to wear your own closed shoes (boots preferable) and long pants. Tours are available Tuesday through Sunday and most trail rides are about two hours in length. Rates are also very reasonable.
After a day of riding, you'll want to ensure you have a nice hotel to retire too and rest your tired body. Horseback riding uses more muscles than you would think! You can find excellent resorts and hotels online.
