A bit run down and out of the way, not well signed. Think the whole place needs a bit of a face lift.

The trail ride and ocean swim with the horses is a must do activity while on Magnetic Island. The horses are very well trained and even the most novice rider will feel safe and comfortable. The staff hosting the ride were really fantastic. Thanks to everyone at Horseshoe Bay Ranch from my wife and myself.

We did a horse track with the guys from Horseshoe Bay Ranch and it was truly a very wonderful experience! We are both not very experienced riders - for my boyfriend it was even just his 2nd experience on a horse. Nevertheless this was no problem, Our guides really tried to adapt the track so that it was perfectly fitting... More

Really lovely people who ran the ranch - Swimming with our horses was a totally different experience as we have never done it before.

The staff are very friendly and easy to get along with, the horses are lovely, and Magnetic Island is truly amazing. What more could... More

I am not an accomplished rider (ridden a little bit) and the staff at Horseshoe Bay Ranch were fantastic. They chose the perfect horse for me. The ride took us through bush then a bareback ride into the ocean ...all in all a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this to both novices and experienced riders.

The bush and beach horseriding experience offered by Horseshoe Bay Ranch is out of this world. We were relatively inexperienced horse riders, but managed to get the horses up to a canter through the paddocks, which was exhilarating. The ride along the beach and then bareback into the water is incredible. The horses are superbly well trained, and the guides... More
