What really stood out was the staff — everyone was incredibly friendly, kind, and knowledgeable. You can genuinely see how much they care about the horses and their wellbeing, which made the experience feel even more special.
We chose the Forest to Beach ride, and it was stunning. Riding through the lush forest felt almost surreal, and then suddenly cresting a small hill to reveal the expansive coastline and ocean views was breathtaking. It’s such a unique experience to take in that landscape from horseback.
A really nice surprise was that our group got to do some trotting during the ride. As a former rider who was a little rusty but still comfortable on a horse, I appreciated that the guides tailored the experience to each rider’s ability level. They allowed those with experience to trot at different points while still making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. The staff consistently checked in throughout the ride, which was reassuring and thoughtful.
I went with friends who were complete beginners, and the team did an amazing job matching each rider with the right horse and supporting everyone at their own pace.
Overall, this was an incredible experience and one I would highly recommend to anyone, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced rider!

I just wanted to reach out and say a sincere thank you for the incredible experience you provided during our recent visit to Byron Bay for my daughter’s birthday.
From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Your team was warm, professional, and genuinely accommodating, which made us all feel comfortable and well looked after. It was clear how much care and attention goes into what you do.
The horses were absolutely beautiful and so well cared for, which really stood out to us. Riding through the forest, along the beach, and even into the water was something truly special—an experience we’ll all remember for a long time. It was also reassuring that your staff regularly checked in with us throughout the ride to make sure everything was going smoothly.
My daughter absolutely loved it, and it made her birthday incredibly memorable for all the right reasons. We’re already talking about coming back again in the future.
Thanks again to the entire team.
Warm Regards
Spiro, Delaney, Sebastian, Luella :-)))

- riding Rose, and meeting her paddock mates.
- cantering with my friends along the beach with a moody sky above
- two nights of luxurious comfort at Elements, just down the road
- riding through the maze of forest and fern to a delicious pub lunch
- hang time with the horses: catching, brushing, saddling, rugging and feeding.
- Zephyr's flexibility - working around the changing weather - thank you Monique!
- riding into the ocean
- the care Zephyr takes of its horses - like bringing their rugs to lunch, and always having bags of carrots on hand
- our guide's patience, careful guidance and obvious love for her job - thank you Cammy!
I could not recommend more highly ❤️
