Otahuna Horse Riding
Otahuna Horse Riding run the "Over the Top Ride" from Tai Tapu to Governors Bay and return. This is a package ride offering two days of riding over a straight forward trail much of it through regenerating coastal native forest,
vibrant birdlife and breathtaking views of the Lyttelton Harbour on one side and the Canterbury Plains, Southern Alps and Lake Ellesmere on the Tai Tapu side. This is a great family or club activity or the perfect romantic adventure for your horse loving partner. The riding takes 5 to 6 hours per day including lunch stop.

There are a number of excellent walking tracks around Governors Bay's hills and foreshore. We also have a safe swimming beach at Sandy Bay which is also perfect for kayaking and sailing.
