The Equathon Difference
“Had an awesome time riding on the beach with Equathon and we would highly recommend it. Friendly, knowledgeable staff who made us feel comfortable and were great fun to ride with. Great horses and gorgeous scenery. Will definitely be booking another ride next time we’re in the area.”
Phil, Brisbane, AUS
“The horses (Jewel and Moose) were just as Neil said – bulletproof and very tolerant of beginners lurching around on them. I suspect this won’t be the end of horse riding for dad and daughter now!! Please pass on our thanks again.”

“Hi Rebecca, I just wanted to say thanks for such an AWESOME day on Saturday. We absolutely loved the whole experience. The horses were lovely, the setting was perfect and Clemmie and Emily were the best guides. I had the biggest smile on my face all day on Saturday and I’m still smiling now just thinking about our day! Thanks again.”

“What an amazing experience- we surprised my daughter on her birthday with a private beach ride and being an experienced rider I was a little unsure about what to expect but I was sold as soon as I spotted the horses and the beach. My 8yr old was amazed by riding in the water & being able to trot on the bold Moose & Scout was a delight as I could relax totally and enjoy the experience with my very excited, horse mad girl.β

“Neil in particular was amazing, both as a guide in making us both feel relaxed with the horses and giving us both encouragement and advice to make the most of the experience.
He also went above and beyond in helping me keep the proposal a secret and it was only with his help that it went so perfectly.”

“This one hour beach ride was fabulous. I hadnβt ridden for many years, but the horses were very well trained. It was just my daughter and I with a guide, which was a nice surprise as I had expected to be part of a group. Really enjoyed every minute, especially riding in the waves!”
Leila, Mooloolaba, AUS
“I just wanted to say thank you for the ride last Thursday. Sienna and I had a fantastic time β I know we were lucky that the day was perfect and there were whales off the beach, but that only added to what was already a wonderful experience.
The horses were beautiful β and beautifully trained β and Alex, you were wonderful with Sienna. She had an absolutely fabulous time and loved Kin Kin.
We are back in January and will definitely book in again!”
