Thursday, October 8 offers a varied mix of creativity, nature, adventure and relaxed Mediterranean living across Ibiza. From painting with horses in the San Rafael countryside to discovering Ibiza's botanical world, travelling through the east coast by mini train, spending the day beside the sea at Riomar or exploring the coastline on a guided coasteering trip, there are plenty of options away from the traditional resort routine.

Horse as Muse in San Rafael on Thursday, October 8

Horse as Muse offers a creative escape in the countryside around San Rafael, bringing together painting, nature and gentle interaction with two resident horses, Matewa and Canela.

The three-hour workshops are led by Ibiza-based artist Amy Agouropoulos and are designed around a relaxed and intuitive approach to painting. No previous experience with horses or painting is required, and all materials, snacks and refreshments are included.

The current programme lists open group sessions on Mondays and Sundays. For Thursday, October 8, visitors can instead arrange a private session at their preferred time for a group of two to six people, so the 09:30 time in the masterlist should not be treated as a fixed public departure.
