Here guests are given the opportunity to swim bareback and frolic with the horse in the magnificent Caribbean Sea. The sea is crystal clear and white sands allow for great swimming and picture taking opportunities. The ride concludes by the gardens brimming with pimento trees, bougainvillea, and fishtail palms.
