- Fond d’Or Bay - The riding trail goes through the ancient ruins to the Interpretation Center Museum for a breath taking view of a carved image of a Lion and head of a Tribal Chief. From there it meanders through forest of coconut palms to the Atlantic Ocean, where you can enjoy a thousand feet of sandy beach and see the nesting ground for the Leather back Turtle. The trail continues through the rain forest and features bird watching, crabs, iguanas, and other wildlife. You can also collect some of natures medicine from the wild. Along the way is banana plantations which goes on for miles then into the ruins of the old sugar mill and continues through the Savannah, meadows and mangroves. Don’t worry about being dehydrated as throughout the tour we will be serving you with water or freshly picked coconut water right from the nut. Back at the stable the tour won’t end without our complimentary refreshments. You will then proceed to the beautiful Dennery falls just 15 minutes away off site.
- Errand Falls - Visit the magnificent Sault Falls (also known as Errard Falls as well as Dennery Falls) which is perhaps the most scenic waterfall in St Lucia. It features a drop of some 15-20m over a rounded cliff with a few smaller cascades further downstream.

Perfect Day - Couldn’t have asked for a better Friday and birthday present for my daughter! Andre picked us up at our airbnb, then took us right to the stables for a ride, then waterfalls.
His family runs the business and we were lucky enough to have his son and extended family to take us along on the tour. Great to see younger kids run the tour so professionally. The horses were so sweet and kind and knew the trail, giving me full trust of the animal. We got to enjoy fresh coconuts along the beach too!
Helmets, snacks, drinks provided.
Then the added waterfall adventure!

Wonderful day - Our favorite tour of all we did. Family enterprise. Loved that it wasn’t just horseback riding. Pointing out the plants that were used for culinary and medicinal purposes and even a tree bloom that the kids use in school for glue. Going down to the beach where they cut down fresh and dried coconuts so we could taste fresh coconut juice and dried coconut. At the end of the ride we got to go to the stunning Dennery falls.

We had a good time - These are the nicest people ever! They were very accommodating and friendly. We loved going to Dennery Falls because we had it all to ourselves. Diamond Falls, on the other hand, is packed with tourists. Locals call Dennery Falls a hidden gem. It’s a bit of a drive from the Rodney Bay area, but I’m glad we went.

A very enjoyable experience for the whole family ! - The whole experience was fabulous from pick up to drop off. The horses were amazing and riding from the jungle onto the beach and hearing the roaring sound of the Atlantic ocean was incredible. It was a lovely thing to do as a family, we had some who had ridden before and a couple of us who had never really been on a horse before and the experience was suitable for all levels.
After the ride we were taken by car to the beautiful waterfalls to cool off and swim, and the falls were spectacular. The team really did look after us all day !

WONDERFUL Personalized Experience - Highly recommend this family owned business. They are professional, very kind and knowledgeable. They picked us up at the cruise port and ensured we returned on time. We went horseback, riding, cruised the island, hiked, swam at a waterfall and had a mud bath at the sulphur hot springs. They even gave us bananas, juice, water and had a coconut waiting for us! Don’t miss out on this experience.

Bucket List Trail Ride - What an amazing personalized riding experience. I’m back at home and still in awe of this excursion. Communication is great; answered all my questions leading up to date. They provide pickup and drop off at your location. We started our ride with amazing views of the Atlantic going down a hill into trails that led into a Sugar Plantation/ruins, Banana and Plantain fields and then down around rivers/trails in back country to the beach area. Surf was too rough to “swim” but they still had a safe area to play in the water bareback with the horses where the river met the ocean and I soaked up every minute of playing in that surf. Ended our ride with a gallop on the beach and then back up the same trail we started on, to the farm. The waterfall was breathtaking and so peaceful. Had the beach and waterfall to ourselves. I was also surprised by the two kids that were our guides showing us local plants and teaching us what they were used for. Experienced a cocoa plant and drinking out of a huge coconut (way heavier than I thought they would be, lol). Ran by such lovely people; will be on the list of places I want to return to and will ride with again.

An Amazing Experience - My family and I went horseback riding yesterday! I called early in the morning and easily made a reservation over the phone-which was nice. We had no idea that we would have such an amazing experience. The tour through the jungle was breathtaking and the tour guides were informative- teaching us about the history of the area. The BEST part was when we arrived at the beach. It was beautiful!!! We had time to swim, relax on the beach and just take in the beautiful scenery. They also cracked open coconuts for all of us to drink coconut water. It was my first time on a horse so I was SO afraid but I didn’t want to chicken out and ruin it for my kids. The guide I had guided the horse slowly for me so that I didn’t get scared. I appreciated that so much! When we returned we were provided with cool drinks and fresh bananas from their farm. I’m glad that my family and I got to experience this together. It was a memorable day! We talked about how much we loved it all the rest of the day. I’d definitely do this again and recommend it for anyone who visits St. Lucia.

Awesome experience with Keith from East Coast Riding Stables - Keith’s driver picked us up at 8:30am from our hotel and we spent the day with both Keith and his driver.
The horses were ready for us on arrival
Keith took us on a historical tour through the old sugar plantation where we learned all about the history. Then onto riding through the banana plantation where Keith explained all about the growing process of the banana, all very interesting and great places to ride.
Then we rode to the beach which was awesome and Keith even climbed a coconut tree to get us both a coconut to drink from and eat the jelly inside!
When we got back to the stables Keith and his driver then drove us to the waterfalls then for some food and then to the mud bath.
And then they finally drove us around the island of Saint Lucia before dropping us off to our hotel about 5:45pm
All in all my husband and I had an absolute amazing day. A big thank you to Keith and his driver.
I would highly recommend EAST COAST RIDING STABLES.

Rocky trip! - The kids that led the tour were fantastic!!!! Horses made 2 runs back to back so was tough! Horses were led most of the way. Very very rocky 1/2 of trail, walking literally through vines and close to trees/brush. Mango was stubborn horse. Saddle loosened x2. Almost fell twice. Walked at the end on the way back….didnot trust getting back on. It was steep and hot!

Please don’t!!! - Horses are not properly cared for and not tame. They put my 7 year old son on a horse that was very upset. While being led by staff the horse bucked up and took off throwing my son from the horse. He ended up falling face first into the rocks. They did give us a refund and paid for our hospital visit, but I would not recomend anyone gets on these horses. They are rode hard and not cared for. Equipment is worn and does not fit the horses or the riders.
