Natadola Beach is regularly rated Fiji's most beautiful mainland beach, and a slow horse ride along its two kilometres of white sand is one of the most photographed experiences on the whole Coral Coast. Suli's team can arrange a guided ride right from the same stretch of beach where their boat tours depart, next to the InterContinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa.

Rides are led at a gentle, walking pace suited to complete beginners, with horses well used to visitors of all confidence levels. You'll head along the open sand with the surf on one side and the green headland on the other — it's the kind of simple, unhurried activity that ends up being everyone's favourite photo from the whole trip.

As with all of Suli's tours, this is arranged locally and personally rather than through a big commercial stable — message ahead on WhatsApp so the team can confirm horse availability, timing and pricing for your dates.

There is a rough general weight guideline for rider safety and horse welfare — mention any concerns on WhatsApp when booking.

Rides can often be paired with a snorkel or lagoon swim straight after, since you're already on the beach.

“If you are looking for an amazing and authentic Fiji experience, you have come to the right place. Suli is your perfect local tour guide. For what the hotel would normally charge one person for a tour, Suli took our whole family for the same price.”

“Highlight of our Fiji holiday. Located right at the edge of the InterContinental's beach where the headland bends — look for the guy in the cowboy hat and his friend Sly. They gave my wife and I a private, unforgettable afternoon.”

Horse Riding — Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need horse riding experience?

No experience is necessary. Rides are led at a slow, guided walking pace along the beach and are suitable for complete beginners, including many first-time riders.

Is this the same as other horse riding operators on Natadola Beach?

Natadola Beach has a few local horse riding operators. When you message Suli Local Adventures on WhatsApp, mention you'd like the ride arranged through them specifically, and their team will confirm exactly who you'll be riding with, timing and pricing before you book.

Can we do a sunset ride?

Yes, sunset rides are available and are one of the most requested times — just confirm timing in advance since Fiji's sunset time shifts through the year.

Is there a minimum age for kids?

Younger children can usually ride double with an adult or a guide leading closely. Let the team know ages and confidence levels on WhatsApp so they can plan accordingly.
