Florida Horseback Swim with Dolphins & Manatees

What makes this experience special is the chance to ride a horse directly through the shallow coastal waters of Florida while surrounded by a natural marine habitat. Instead of a traditional trail ride, you’ll experience the coastline from the water, with the possibility of spotting dolphins, manatees, stingrays, and other local wildlife along the way. The guides also share insight into the horses and the surrounding environment, making the experience feel more personal and connected to the area rather than simply being a scenic ride.

   Meet your horse and guide before beginning with a short introduction and safety briefing. You’ll learn a little about the horses and get comfortable before heading toward the coast. Ride into the shallow waters along the Florida shoreline, where your horse will walk through the calm sea while your guide leads the way and adjusts the experience to the tides and conditions. As you move through the water, keep watch for local marine life such as dolphins, manatees, and stingrays, which can sometimes be spotted in the surrounding coastal habitat. Throughout the ride, your guide will share information about the area, the horses, and the wildlife that lives along this part of the Florida coast. Enjoy the unusual experience of exploring the shoreline from horseback before returning with your group at the end of the ride.
