The 2 Best Horse Riding in Mauritius

1.Horseback riding on the beach

★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 91 reviews · 1 hour · from $110Our pick

At Legasea Stables, you first visit the animal sanctuary, then ride for one hour at a walk along Belle Mare beach. A guide accompanies your small group of up to four, with helmets provided. The horses suit beginners, but this is a calm beach ride, not a trotting, galloping, or swimming session.

“It was an absolutely wonderful experience! I rode a horse named Picasso, who was extremely gentle, clean, and very sweet. Riding along the beach was truly magical and something I will never forget. The guide was very kind and professional, and he also took beautiful, high-quality photos of me with the horse. I am more than satisfied and would highly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Mauritius.”

2.Mauritius Horse Riding at Riambel

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 20 reviews · from $125

Ride along Riambel Beach in southern Mauritius with a professional guide, choosing a daytime or late-afternoon outing. You receive a safety briefing, helmet, and riding guidance before following the shoreline for about an hour. No experience is needed, but the ride stays on the beach and does not include entering the sea. Maximum rider weight is 95kg.

“A bit underwhelming. Thought we’d get to go in the water - but that didn’t happen. Also, did ask to do the activity during sunset, was asked to come a lot earlier than sunset, therefore that didn’t happen. The organisers are very nice, experience just didn’t live up to my expectations is all.”
