Three decades, generations in
the saddle
Family-owned since 1993, the Equestrian Center has supported generations of riders in Cayman
For more than three decades, the Equestrian Center has helped shape equestrian sport in the Cayman Islands.
From first pony rides to international competition, it has become a place where riders are trained correctly, horses are cared for at a high standard, and the wider equestrian community continues to grow.
Today, that same commitment continues through our riding programs, boarding, competitions, clinics, and Equine Connections.
Welfare at the center of everything.
Everything we do is built on respect for the horse, correct fundamentals and long-term development. From daily care and training to the pace at which riders progress, welfare underpins every aspect of the program.
Built for progress
Our facilities are designed to support rider development, horse welfare, and year-round training in a safe, professionally managed environment.
-
Purpose-built spaces for dressage, jumping, and lessons, including a 20x60m mirrored dressage arena with GGT footing, 65x55m jump arena, and 20x40m teaching arena.
-
24 stalls across two barns, including a main barn with center aisle and dedicated pony barn.
-
Individual turnout paddocks with natural shade, wash bays, and thoughtfully designed spaces that support horses both in and out of the saddle.
-
FEI-approved jumps, premium equipment, and facilities designed to support progressions from beginner riders through to competition.
-
Experienced onsite support and professional care systems designed around long-term health, wellbeing and performance.
Investing in the future of Cayman equestrian sport
As the Equestrian Centre grows, so does our investment in the future of horses, riders, and equestrian sport in Cayman.
Planned additions include a new 11-stall barn with dedicated wash bays, tack and feed rooms and wash bays, alongside a covered dressage arena to support year-round training and greater weather protection.
Our focus remains the same: providing a safe, functional, and progressive environment for horses and riders alike.
It wasn’t only the riding - it was the friendships, the early mornings, learning to win and lose gracefully, and taking on real responsibility. The Equestrian Center gave my children life lessons they simply couldn’t have learned anywhere else.
