Anna Maria Island Activities

Experience the Beach on Horseback

It’s a unique family experience that lets you interact with highly trained animals and their trainers. Complete with that “Old Florida” charm, it can be anything you want it to be – memorable, romantic, educational, or exciting. Riding a horse along the beach is motivating enough to some to plan a quick weekend trip to Anna Maria Island because there aren’t too many other places that allow such splendor along their shores.

The trainers at The Great World Adventures’ BeachHorses™ Experience have been teaching locals and tourists how to have fun with their horses at Palma Sola Bay for over ten years now. Since then, we’ve gained quite the reputation for HorseSurfing™ or Horse Skiing™. Our company has been featured in various forms of media all over North America, Europe., and even one of National Geographic social media feeds.

Interested in doing some horseback riding along the coast? We can help guide you through the process. Buy your tickets early because they sell out quickly. You can do this online or by calling The Great World Adventures’ BeachHorses™ Experience. You should get a confirmation email after buying your tickets with information like what you should wear, directions, what to bring, etc. Please read this email after booking or before coming so you have all of the information you need and don’t get turned away or show up late because you were not prepared. The meeting will be at Palma Sola Bay, and we suggest arriving 15 to 20 minutes before your scheduled ride.

The first half of your memorable experience will begin on the beach and the second half will end in the water. During your entire ride, you will have an instructor/guide with you at all times. While in the water with your horse, the trainer will teach you how to do some tricks on the horse.

Staying on Anna Maria Island means you will be so close to the fun but far enough away to let the chaos melt away while you enjoy your vacation or staycation depending on where you’re from. Book your trip today! We hope to see you soon!
