The sun leans low over the Red Sea as you mount—salt on the air, sand shifting under the hooves. For two hours the coastline becomes a moving line between desert and surf: a quiet walk through pale dunes, a measured trot along firm beach, and a pulse-quickening moment when the horse steps into shallow water and the sea pulls at your stirrups.

Bring sun protection
The coastal sun is strong even in winter—wear a wide-brim hat under your helmet, sunscreen, and UV-blocking sunglasses.
Hydrate before you ride
Carry water for before and after the ride; guides typically provide a short rest but bring a reusable bottle to avoid heat stress.
Secure footwear and low-heel boots
Closed-toe shoes with a low heel prevent slipping from the stirrup and protect feet when dismounting on beach or uneven sand.
Follow trainers near the surf
Entering shallow water changes the horse’s balance—listen to the guide’s signals and avoid sudden movements that could spook the animal.
Closed-toe riding or hiking boots
Low heels and firm soles help keep your feet secure in the stirrups and on shifting sand.
Lightweight long-sleeve shirt
Breathable fabric protects against sun and wind while keeping you cool.

Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
