Horseback Beach Riding from Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana for resort guests

Horseback beach riding from Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana — a calm 2-hour trail from the Macao ranch through coconut groves to the wild Macao beach surf line and back. Lobby pickup at the Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana entrance in Arena Gorda (~15 min to the ranch), helmet + saddle briefing, beginner-friendly horses, bilingual guides walking alongside non-riders. Sunrise (7:30 AM) and sunset (4:30 PM) departures both available — sunset is the photo slot. Flat USD 55 per rider including transfer, no upsells. Bávaro and Arena Gorda hotels are 15–20 min from the ranch via the Friusa cut — short enough to add the ride as a 4-hour half-day to a free morning, no full-day commitment. Who it's for: Adults-only couples, Preferred Club guests, repeat AMR Collection travellers. Each Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana group rides as a closed pod (max 12 horses) — you don't get folded into a bigger groupon van. Riders are matched by weight and experience at the ranch: nervous first-timers get our slowest two mares (Canela and Luna), confident riders get the Paso Fino crosses that actually break into a beach canter on the return leg. Water, helmet, and printed photo (taken at the dune-top overlook) are included; no resort-desk markup, no time-share pitch on the van ride. Pair it with a Macao buggy in the morning and we drop you back at Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana by 1 PM for lunch. Secrets Royal Beach is adults-only in Arena Gorda — perfect base to pair a calm Catalina day with a Cabeza de Toro sunset catamaran, no buggy noise required. Each Horseback Beach Riding from Secrets Royal Beach Punta Cana option ships with door-to-door pickup, English-speaking guides and a flat per-person rate confirmed over WhatsApp.
