We went to spend some quality time on the beach after another long and sleepless night. Another life saved and two hours on the beach seem well deserved.

We went to Haven Sand  Beach just relaxing and soaking in the water.  Than we saw the horses and we couldn’t resist the temptation to try.

 You pay about $20 and it gives you an hour ride along the beach and the Sugar Cane Plantation. It is very exiting even if this is not your first time. There are miles of soft, white sand bordered by coconut palms.

The area is called Runaway Bay. My horse was also Runaway, 4 years old, very naughty boy!

 The local instructor was 14 years old boy and his father (owner of the business from generations) was only watching us and left us in his son’s experienced  hands.

Runaway was very greedy and stopped every time there was something to graze on. There are horses for every temperament and skill levels.

On the islands the name is quite characteristic for the horse’s behavior. If you are a beginner go for Lazy, Old Boy, Relaxation. Names like Nut Cracker, Rabies, Fury are NO, NO, NOOOO! : )
