The first sound is the clip of tack and the quiet conversation of guides—then the island opens. Riders leave the port plaza behind and descend a trotted path shaded by century-old oaks, the branches leaning like watchful hands. Mangroves edge the trail as the land slopes toward the iron shore; an expanse of turquoise beyond dares you to look closer. At Tortuga Point, the surf refracts light off coral gardens and the guide hands you a moment to frame the lagoon: mangrove roots, lagoon glass, and a distant reef line.
