Ixtapa Shore Excursion: Horseback Riding on Zihuatanejo Bay

When you arrive in port in Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo, let your hair loose and enjoy a horseback riding shore excursion in tropical paradise! Explore the breathtaking surroundings as you ride through the lush coconut groves and onto the tropical beach of Playa Larga. This is an exciting adventure, and in which no horseback-riding experience in horseback riding is necessary!

Your Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo horseback-riding adventure starts as your guide picks you up from the cruise ship port and takes you to Rancho El Palmar, where you’ll be paired with a horse that suits your riding ability. Designed for both beginners and experienced riders, this Ixtapa-Zihuatanejo shore excursion will be an exciting and fun activity for all!

Your experienced guide will lead you on a two-hour ride through the tropical jungle. Wind through coconut groves and small huts tucked beneath the trees. See towering coconut palms with mango and banana trees growing under them.

Weave out of the forest and onto Playa Larga, which means “long beach.” Ride along the 9.5 miles (15km) of unspoiled beach lined with palm trees, and enjoy the picturesque view of Zihuatanejo Bay. Soak in the sunshine and feel the warm breeze as you canter on the soft white sand.
