Heaven on horseback on Noordhoek Beach

This dream can become a reality at The Dunes horseback riding stables in Noordhoek near Cape Town, South Africa - close to the Cape of Good Hope. The Dunes riding stables is built on the sand of Noordhoek Beach - the longest, whitest and most spectacular beach in the whole of Cape Town (if not the world)!

Stroll or canter along the shoreline of this 5-mile long beach, then explore the ancient shipwreck. Splash through the seasonal lagoon and trot through the grassy sand dunes. Advanced riders can gallop on the race horse training track parallel to the beach, while beginners admire the exquisite views of Chapman's Peak mountain dropping into the unfeasibly blue Atlantic Ocean.

RIDE A RACE HORSE

Dancer - retired champion

Apart from offering beach horse rides, The Dunes is also a racing stables. About forty thoroughbred horses are in training at The Dunes Racing Stables, and they compete at Cape Town's two race courses every week. You could be taking a beach ride on a retired winner, who now has a more leisurely life as a trail riding horse. Your ex-race horse will go as fast as you like, but they are quite happy to plod along at a walk, trot or canter if that is what you prefer.
