The most striking characteristic of this location are the cliffs of white & brown that surround it. Shaped naturally over time by wind and sea, they provide an almost surreal landscape which you will navigate on horseback.

Highlights
Initially, our trained professionals will introduce you to basic equestrian skills, followed by providing all required equipment along with a suitable horse for your journey.
Your ride commences from the enchanting dunes of Caldera Beach. You will be steered towards mountains of Santorini, birthed and preserved post the large eruption. Here you could enjoy sweeping views of the Aegean Sea, untamed nature, and imbibe local culture.
Subsequently, our trail draws us towards the Eros’ black beach. We’ll chase waves on horseback, in and out of water, relishing a splendid oceanic horse ride. Witness the pictorial sand dunes referred to as ‘magical landscape’. You could take a break to photograph and record these special moments.
Finally, we follow the trail back to our stables. The expedition culminates at its point of origin, ending an enthralling journey filled with enduring memories.

A must do - Alex and Manos were great. We got there early and they spent time talking to us about the island. We ended up going on a private tour. Manors took several pictures and videos for us. Highly recommend

Amazing Experience! Highly recommend! - This experience could not have been better. The brothers who own the facility are true professionals who are very kind and engaging. I’m a nervous rider and I was made to feel extremely comfortable and well cared for during the ride. The horses were friendly and gentle as well. I go horseback riding on all my trips and this was the best tour I’ve experienced. The cherry on top is that they take MANY photos and videos for you on your own device and offered to arrange for hotel pick up and drop off for a reasonable fee. I highly recommend you schedule a tour with them!

A must go in Santorini - Super friendly staffs and amazing experience. You dont need any horse riding experience and you will be well taken care of. Alex and Manues even help taking nice pictures. They are experts in both horses and accomodating guests.

Spectacular views!, , wonderful guides, beautiful and gentle horses! A truly unforgettable experience! - Our two guides, Manolis and Alexandros were amazing. They care for the horses and assure that they are calm. They also care that their guests feel safe and are having a good time. Manolis was my guide. He was warm, welcoming and very passionate about his work. By the end of our tour, I felt like I had always known him. The views were spectacular and they took lots of pics for us. They also pointed out landmarks and explained the black sand and lava. My horse’s name was Koko. He was so sweet and gentle. I would definitely visit again and recommend Effipos for the best beach horseback ride!!!!

An absolutely incredible experience! - I would give this experience more than 5 stars if I could. Our guide for the ride was Manos, who is maybe the most friendly person you will ever meet. I couldn't say enough about how welcoming Manos and his brother Alex were in making us feel comfortable, both at the riding center and on our horses. It was my first time on a horse and Manos made sure that I was safe and enjoying the ride every step of the way.
Couldn't recommend this enough. You will love it.

Do it! - Manos and Alex were incredible! My mom and I went and we both really enjoyed out sunset ride. My mom is not an experienced rider and was really nervous. The guides were so positive, encouraging and reassuring she loved her experience. The sunset ride was beautiful! Highly recommend it!
