A warm Caribbean morning unfurls as riders gather at the stables near Falmouth, helmets clipped and saddles checked. Horses shift and snort; the guides give brief instruction, then the group threads out across country lanes where the sea air pushes inland and the ride opens onto a quiet north-coast beach. Later the Rio Bueno river calls—its current daring riders to relax and let the tube carry them through a corridor of rainforest.
