Wildcoast Beach
Over the Edge of Africa
The South African coast in the Indic Ocean is an ideal place to ride next to the sea, on the sand that reflects and multiplies the rays of the sun, with the wind blowing on our faces, amid rocky strenuous land. This experience is a unique combination between relaxation, journey, and confront, staying at the Kei Mouth.

Day by Day
Day 1. Arrival.
We will stay at the Kei Mouth Guest Lodge, located at Kei Mouth, near the stables. Its lovely rooms are available for the guests. We get in tune with the place, with the spirit of Wild Coast and the South African breeze.
Day 2. Let us take advantage of the state of astonishment.
Who does not remember waking up on the first morning in the hotel or camp to discover the colours of the landscape, the waves of a near sea that try to reach the shore, and feel that one was then immersed in the territory? That’s how we feel today. We take advantage of the state of astonishment to go around the adjoining areas and begin to get acquainted with the beaches and local fauna.
Days 3, 4 and 5. The Wild Coast from the saddle of the horse.
We wake up early in the morning, have breakfast, saddle up our horses, and leave. We visit cascades and cliffs, hidden coves, and, at lunchtime, we go around local pubs and restaurants.
Days 5, 6, 7. Galloping over the strenuous rocks and an unforgettable hotel.
We take a mini path along the coast for three days, over warm sand and strenuous rocks that make Wild Coast the perfect place to ride. We stay for two nights in the lovely Wavecrest Beach Hotel & Spa, a complex composed of little houses with coned roofs that have jacuzzis, a pool, and an exceptional view of the Indic Ocean.
Day 8. Farewell.
We head back to the original inn. It has been a week of intense gallop, discovery, and contemplation of unforgettable landscapes. We take advantage of the morning before leaving to take one last goodbye cavalcade.
