About this experience

Horseback Riding in Ponta da Calheta is a guided equestrian activity on Porto Santo, starting from the island's western coastal area. Riders follow trails that cross the Calheta plain and approach the Atlantic shoreline, with views of the neighbouring islets. The activity is led by local guides who match horses to each rider's skill level.

  • The route passes the Ponta da Calheta lighthouse and the rocky coastline, where you can see the Ilhéu de Cima and Ilhéu de Baixo.
  • Suitable for beginners and experienced riders, with gentle walking paces for novices and trotting or cantering for advanced riders.
  • Groups are limited to eight riders, ensuring individual attention from the guide.
  • You will ride on a mix of sandy tracks, dirt paths, and a short section of beach, depending on tide conditions.
  • The activity includes a brief safety briefing and horse-handling instruction before departure.
