Ride & Swim

Riding a horse in the crystal clear water of Plakias Bay is a unique experience & a refreshing way to start your day!

Description

Starting from the Horse Riding Center, the riders will head west through the olive groves, towards the 1.4 klm long, sandy beach of Plakias. As soon as they reach the coast, they will have the opportunity to canter along the shoreline and at specific points of the beach, where the waters are shallow and the bottom of the sea is quite smooth, they will get in the water to swim with their horse. Swimming is very enjoyable and therapeutic for the horses and a unique experience for the riders.
