La Marisma sur Saintes-Maries-De-La-Mer

I came with a friend for three days in the Camargue and we had an extraordinary experience riding horses at La Marisma. An exceptional setting, far removed from all the tourist traps you find along the roadside, a warm welcome, Camargue horses in excellent health, pampered by Patty and Joël, and so well-behaved... Breathtaking rides through pine forests and past herds... And royal picnics, not to mention Patty's delicious iced tea. So if you're looking for an AUTHENTIC place where you can feel the love for horses, take my advice and rush to the haven of peace that is La Marisma 🤩 We will definitely be back!!!

Horse people, top-notch horses. A fantastic experience and day. Everything was perfect 🤩

An unforgettable experience surrounded by truly lovely Camargue locals, a self-guided walk with a family atmosphere. Incredible landscapes, everything you need to enjoy yourself! A huge thank you to Marisma.

I went on a 5-hour ride with Marisma, lunch included! We were taken to a truly incredible spot (Le Grand Radeau), normally reserved for the residents of Sainte-Marie-de-la-Mer, which offers vast expanses where the horses could gallop freely, right next to the flamingos. The horses are excellent, very gentle, a pleasure to ride, and full of energy (thanks to Ulysse!). I also want to thank Joël and Patty, who were very welcoming, patient, and made me feel at ease, even though I'm quite shy. They also have a wonderful ethic towards their horses. I highly recommend Marisma. For riders who are comfortable at least at all three gaits, as there's quite a bit of cantering involved!

A superb experience in the heart of the Camargue! My daughter and I explored the Grand Radeau area on horseback, enjoying numerous gallops through wide open spaces, flamingos, and all the beauty of the Camargue. A huge thank you to Joël and Patti for their warm welcome and passion. This isn't a fancy tourist outing: a genuine horseback ride for experienced riders, authentic and friendly, almost like a family adventure. Above all, you can feel the respect and love they have for their horses, which they take excellent care of. Top-notch organization, magnificent horses, exceptional scenery, and a wonderful time shared. An experience we wholeheartedly recommend!

Second experience with La Marisma and just as fantastic as the first time! This time we did the beach day; the ponds were full of water and the horses are exceptional. They go everywhere and are very responsive to their riders. I highly recommend them to all riders, experienced or not, who are looking for a stable that takes good care of its horses and offers a real experience, more than just a simple ride! Big thanks to Joël and Patty! Thank you again!

An exceptional place where we received a very warm welcome. The rides are magnificent and the horses are adorable and in excellent health. Patty and Joël are very kind and make sure nothing is lacking. I highly recommend it!

I highly recommend it. An incredible welcome and indescribable kindness. Thank you for this amazing morning in a small group.

I had an exceptional day with Joël and Patty. I loved riding there. The rides through the ponds to the seaside and the gallops on the beach were unforgettable, and Patty's tea was too! Thank you for this incredible day that I will never forget! A.

La Marisma: Discover the wild Camargue with the best guides on the best horses, in the best conditions! It's a feast for the eyes, the horses are exceptional, and Patty and Joël take excellent care of you. Experienced riders: this is the spot you absolutely can't miss!
