The surf counts out a steady rhythm as you mount—salt air pulling at your hair, hooves clicking through the shallow Mameyes River, then into the open shoulder of Atlantic sand. The ride moves at an easy cadence: a guided lesson, a river crossing that cools you, a stretch of beach where the ocean seems to push you forward and the rainforest hills fall back.
