My advice is to wear good, sturdy boots. Some of the horses like to go fast, and when you're not properly dressed, it can be a bumpy ride.

I think it's best to book your lessons in advance, especially on weekends. They can get super busy, and I ended up waiting longer than expected!

If you're planning to surf, try to get there around 8 AM. The waves were really nice and not too crowded then, plus you can grab a good parking spot before the beach fills up!

If you're planning to go on a weekend, try to get there right when they open at 12 PM. We went around 2 PM and had to wait a while for the next available game.

My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. The arena is awesome but quite big, and you’ll be running around a lot. I learned the hard way with my sneakers after a long game!

i think you should try to get an afternoon slot, around 3 pm. the lines were way shorter then, and we had way more fun without the long wait!

I recommend getting there early like around 8 AM. The trails are less crowded and you can enjoy the views with more peace. Trust me it’s totally worth it!

If you're into photography, try visiting during golden hour (around 6-7 PM). The sunsets are unbelievable, and you'll get some awesome shots without all the daytime crowds!

Bring a picnic! There aren't many restaurants immediately by the beach, and while the food trucks are good, you'll save money and enjoy the gorgeous scenery more if you pack your own lunch

i suggest hitting the beach early in the morning, like around 8 am, for calmer waves and a less crowded spot. it's perfect for a peaceful walk and you’ll get the gorgeous sunrise too.

My advice is to pack a picnic. There were a couple of food trucks, but prices feel a bit steep. I saved a good bit by enjoying my own snacks right by the surf
