We do two guided rides a day, morning ride at 9:30am and an afternoon ride at 3:30pm during winter hours, 4:30 during the summer. We can take all experience levels from 6 years old and up (if they are younger they must be experienced riders). There is an extra charge if someone must be led. Everyone rides their own horse or pony, no double riding. We have a 200 pound weight limit. Groups are never more than 12 riders. Private rides are available for an additional fee. Helmets are available and are required for children 17 and under. We ride along quiet dirt roads and trails to Long Bay Beach, a 4 mile long secluded beach. We do not do nose to tail type rides, and more experienced riders are given the chance to trot or canter along the beach depending on the tides. The shallow waters of the Caicos Banks off Long Bay make it an ideal place to take your horse into the ocean. You can book a one hour ride or a 90 minute ride. We can arrange for transportation to and from your hotel. Reservations are required. A Visa or Mastercard number is required for all reservations, as well as weights and experience levels of all riders in your group so that we can properly assign horses to riders. We are a fully insured and licensed business in the Turks and Caicos Islands. « less

“Best Experience!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 May 2012 NEW

We had so much fun riding the horses in the perfect water of the Turks and Caicos! Such a well organized and fun experience! I was worried that the horses would be mal-nourished, or mistreated (as many are in resort situations). These horses were actually rescued from other islands or the US where they were in poor condition and rehabilitated... More

“Fun Ride”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 May 2012 NEW

If you are looking for something different, then this is it. Taking horses in the water was a first for me and a great experience. The staff was friendly and professional and they have horses for every skill level. We did not leave until they were sure everyone was comfortable with their horse. They even had extra shoes available if... More

The 90 minute horseback ride was the last day of our vacation. What a beautiful end! The staff was professional, experienced and personable. They seemed to care that everyone had a great time.

“Memorable Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 May 2012

My family of three, two adults and one seven yr. old child, enjoyed a Provo Ponies experience while vacationing in TCI. I have to say, it was the highlight of our trip. In the States, one can not take a horse onto a beach and into the water and ride-period. It was wonderful to do this, and we all had... More

“a nice ride”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2012

we did a group ride at 4pm back on 4/9/12. There were two of us and about 11 others that were beginners. My only negative was that this was a large group & that if I knew it was going to be that large we may have opted for a private. On the plus side, the horses were great, we... More

“Incredible Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2012

Loved the 3 guides, especially the main gal leading the group (forgot her name at the moment). Easy going, likeable and patient with all level riders. The horses are beautiful and you can tell that they are well maintained and loved. We were lucky to have a smaller group on the ride 7 in total plus the 3 group leaders.... More
