Beach & Jungle Horseback Riding at Playa Conchal
Jungle trails and a beach ride on Playa Conchal, 25 min from Tamarindo.
Discover the best of Guanacaste on horseback with our 2-hour Beach & Jungle Horseback Riding tour at Playa Conchal. Your ride begins on shaded jungle trails through a private ranch, where howler monkeys, white-faced capuchins, coatis, iguanas and tropical birds live in the trees, passing waterfalls and natural springs along the way. Then the jungle opens onto the white seashell sand of Playa Conchal and Playa Puerto Viejo, two of the most beautiful beaches on Costa Rica's Gold Coast.
Ride along the turquoise shoreline with a knowledgeable local guide on calm, well cared for horses matched to your level. Confident riders can canter along the beach, while first-time riders enjoy a relaxed pace. Kids 5 and up ride on their own, and younger children ride with an adult or guide, making this one of the best family activities near Tamarindo.
Getting there is easy. The ranch is just 25 minutes from Tamarindo, so you can rent a scooter from Ohana and ride over yourself, or add round-trip transportation for an additional price, with our driver waiting at the ranch until your ride is finished before taking you back. Book your horseback tour, scooter rental and transport all in one place, directly with us.

Ohana Rental & Tours was super helpful in getting us to see the arribada. This turtle tour experience was unlike any other I’ve ever seen. The staff was helpful and helped us see thousands of turtles. Highly recommend this tour.
Response from Ohana
Thank you so much, Harrison! 🐢 We're so stoked we could get you out to witness the arribada. Seeing thousands of sea turtles come ashore to nest is one of the most unforgettable experiences in Guanacaste, Costa Rica. Thank you for booking your turtle tour from Tamarindo with Ohana Rental & Tours, and we hope to welcome you back for another adventure on your next trip! 🙌🏾 — The Ohana Team

Great experience and quick delivery to playa grande. Sam’s customer service was super attentive and understanding. I had to extend my reservation by an extra day and he was able to handle it on the spot. Thanks again! Will rent again
