You will find horseback riding opportunities for experienced riders and

hammocks while enjoying Florida's great outdoors. Specifically, horseback trails are

Riding on the beach in Florida is a fantastic experience and not to be
missed. Whereas, some beaches allow you to bring your own horses, others
require you to sign up with a beach riding company. Florida provides many
opportunities for beach riding including both coasts and the Florida
Panhandle.
Temperature in Florida
It is hot in Florida in the summertime, so most riders just wear
T-shirts and jeans. Alternatively, winter time temperatures can be chilly, especially in
northern Florida, so check the weather to be sure you will be comfortable.
The best practice is to layer clothes since cool morning temperatures
often give way to warmer afternoon temperatures. Here are some
tips for hot
weather riding in Florida.
Horseback
Riding Attire
Florida Horseback riding requires appropriate clothing so you will want
to wear long pants such as blue jeans. Additionally, shoes or boots should have heels
that will keep your feet from slipping through the stirrups.
T-shirts are popular but long sleeve shirts can offer protection from the
sun as can a wide brimmed hat.
Renting Horses in Florida
Many Florida stables will rent horses by the hour for riders to ride
on their own. Of course, you must have basic riding skills and knowledge of
the area where you will be riding.
For those just starting out with horses, most stables offer riding
lessons that include individual and group instructions. But be careful,
horseback riding is very addictive and many do not kick the habit for an
entire lifetime.
Horse rental costs depend on rental length, type of horse, time of
day, and region. For instance, a rental for a horse beach ride might set
you back $100 an hour or $150 an hour for sunrise or sunset horse rides.
Some rental facilities may only charge you $30 or $50, horse riding
lessons included.
