While visiting recently I decided to take this trip again.... the first time I went was over 15 years ago when the tours first began.... having seen the horses in the 1980's when they roamed free in Corolla, I wanted to see them in their more captive environment.... Since my visit the last time hundreds of rental homes have been built in the area (only accessible by 4 wheel drive).... but since it is an stretch of beach over 15 miles long there were still lots of open spaces for them.... The outing takes about 2 hours and our guide stopped several times along the way to give us background information about the horses and the area.....

Our vehicle for the trip.... |

Seeing how far some houses jut out into the beach area is amazing.... hard to think that the ocean will not eventually reclaim them...... |

We were taking our ride at near high tide so we were quite close to the surf.... |
