Our beach ride takes us to Captain Sams inlet on Seabrook’s North Beach. We often head out around low tide when our shorebirds, seabirds, and local stand-feeding dolphins are the most active. This is a great opportunity to see and learn more about our local and migratory wildlife!

Our scenic trail ride tours about three miles around the island’s interior. This ride is mostly shaded as we horseback through the maritime forests, tidal marsh, Drake Pond, and along the Seabrook Garden. The wildlife is very active in this area of the island. Depending on the time of year, we often see alligators, deer, birds, turtles, and much more. Our trail ride is a great opportunity to see Seabrook from a different perspective!
