What riders say about Salinas stables
Monterey Bay Equestrian Center
Today we a blast riding on the beach! I rode Elvis and he was taller than the rest, but very gentle and a joy to ride! We had a wonderful guide who's name was Carlos. He was very kind and knowledgeable and had lots of good stories to tell about the area and the history.
