Dragon Boat Racing

In November each year at Pranburi, which is some 30km south of Hua Hin, there is dragon boat racing. Teams compete against each other over a 1km long stretch of the Pranburi River and it's really great fun to watch.

The competition is taken seriously and teams will practice regularly for months in advance.
