Description

La Barrosa beach, in Chiclana de la Frontera, is one of the great strands of the Costa de la Luz: 8 km of fine sand open to the Atlantic. Riding it on horseback at sunset, with the light falling over the sea, is one of the loveliest ways to discover it.

You'll ride at walking pace along the shore, led by a guide, for about 2 hours. The route sets off at sunset, so the departure time shifts through the year. In high season (mid-June to mid-September) the beach itself is too busy, so it runs as a sea-view route through nearby pines and tracks.

Suitable from age 9, no experience required. Ideal for couples, families and groups after a calm experience by the sea.

Chiclana de la Frontera, on Cádiz's Costa de la Luz, blends beaches, pine forests and marshes.
