Hua Hin is a royal city. There were servants following him. Then he went for a walk on the beach. He walked towards a private villa , a guard named Uncle Khao, who had a profession of horse breeding. Uncle Khao saw that there were many people coming to travel, he realized that he had brought horses to play with and people wanted to ride. Since then, there have been horses for people to ride on Hua Hin beach. A hundred years have passed. Since my father’s generation,  I am now sixty years old. Now, when a lot of tourists come  we have to set the price. Normalized  so it was established as a club. At that time, Mr. Noi (Noborn Wutheikul, Mayor of Hua Hin) was a member of the Municipal Council. He called the beach horses to a meeting and formed the Hua Hin Hin Club. twenty years ago

               There are 61 members of the Hua Hin Horse Club, all locals , with horse numbers from 1 to 61. That’s it, there is no addition, and no one who asks to be a member is allowed. Take only the people and horses in our area. Members area reach Om Khao Takiab royal palace to Suan Son, simply put, it’s 19 Rai, there are horses dotted. Some people live in Khao Chopsticks, they go to that area. My house is next to blueport hua hin store. I get off here near it  except that no one  so I walk to the beach in front of the train hotel (Centara Grand Beach Resort & Villas Hua Hin). Everyone wants to rent a horse, both riders go out to the beach anywhere, depending on how many horses we meet. Purchased from many places, Ratchaburi, Phetchaburi, there are three types Thai horses are called dwarf horses, hybrid horses, large horses called foreign horses. Most of us will breed Thai horses. Because our home is hot,  raising hard-to-groom horses  is difficult.  It’s like a foreigner living in Thailand who encounters hot weather. After the purchase, let’s do a history of the horses, blood test, vaccination, the horses also have ID cards. Some people have caused prices to go up.  Whenever we remember the number,  we will know who the horse is. Or like me #8, when a tourist walks in and sees a horse pooping and not picking it up, you know who it is. We volunteer to take care of the safety of tourists. Assuming the item is lost or what? Because if the beach is not safe,  who doesn’t want to visit  ? We lack the income

               Our service fee is set as 1 hour 1000 baht , half an hour 500 baht , 20 minutes 400 baht, 15 minutes 300 baht. Take a picture, accordingly. About 50 baht, and about 100 baht. Some give more. And it depends on them. Together we have to save. I used to eat a hundred a day, and the rest is 40-50 baht. Horses are also economical. But the Livestock Development Department is very good, giving us grass to help us, especially at that time, two years ago, during the couple with Covid, there was horse plague. Ten of our horses died. Because he is stuck from another place  but the Department of Livestock Development came to help take care of her, giving two injections of vaccination, but the owner of the dead horse had to borrow money to buy a new horse because he was already working in a horse rental company. He had to support his family for now, post-COVID, our members are still 61 people as usual, no one left a career. During COVID, we support each other. We are here already  Build a lot, sell a lot, enough to support yourself. Now it’s getting better since we got  vaccinated. The horse has been vaccinated, and it is easy to say that both people and horses are fine.. New episodes are like this.. Everyone is scared. But we are immune here. Thanks to Prime Minister Noi for getting the budget to vaccinate people in Hua Hin District. Some people bring vaccination coupons with them. Some people don’t believe  I used to ride a horse and didn’t dare.

               I’ve been in the business of renting horses on the beach since I was over ten years old, my parents have 4 kids and I’m the only one who has loved horses since I was young, we both love horses and make money. A normal day for studying  on Saturdays, Sundays come for horse hire. Don’t ask the parents for money,  give the rest of the money to the parents.  We just take enough to eat at school and live. I stopped working in hotels. At 55 they asked me to retire first. Now we really like this method. It’s better than being an employee. This is our freedom. Although I stopped renting horses for a while. But I always mix with the horse, never throw it away, and now I do it every day. What horse is this? I know everyone’s name.

               There are other beach horses that can be rented in Cha-am, but the original is from Hua Hin. Before this  Chinese New Year  I’m riding a horse from Hua Hin to Cha Am  because there are so many tourists  and they don’t have a horse. I rode horses back and forth with a good income. Later, people in Hua Hin moved to make horses in Cha Am. But in the beginning, Hua Hin was the only place I could remember from my father’s time. It is a symbol that if you come to Hua Hin, you must come to ride horses on the beach. There are two things in Hua Hin that have been paired before. Tricycle with beach horse  Nowadays, tricycles almost do not exist. There are only scooter taxis, but we still keep the beach horses. Not to mention the cleanliness and safety here. We already take care of each other. We all carry bags, and horse poop is collected and taken to the dumpster. There are a few small thefts. In the past, it had not yet been developed, and may have been, as the municipality helped to maintain. During the festival we have a horse parade to join in as well. I think I keep doing this. One of our members is 70 years old. But it’s still going strong. Other than that, there are members, children and grandchildren. Hua Hin beach horses will definitely not disappear.”
