White Water River Rafting Class III & IV

What your day looks like

Join us for a great day of rafting! Set deep in the Costa Rican rain forests and fed by waters from the Poas volcano, this amazing tropical river winds 13Km (about 9 miles) through the canyon filled with dramatic scenery and heart pumping excitement. This river offers some of Costa Rica’s best white water with big waves, technical rapids and continuous whitewater. Our journey begins with a 1.5 hour scenic drive through the Eastern portion of central Costa Rica through the beautiful pineapple, papaya and yucca fields with Arenal Volcano set in the backdrop. Once we reach our destination, our trained/skilled guides will review the rules and safety guidelines for the river to familiarize yourself with your job as paddlers. Then we will take the plunge and head down river. We will enjoy the spectacular scenery and a thrilling ride. Halfway through our journey we will re-fuel on the river bank and enjoy some delicious tropical fruit while soaking in the beautiful surroundings. River time varies between 2.5 and 3 hours depending on changing daily water flow. At the end of our journey, a cold drink and dry towel await you before a short ride where you can change into dry clothes followed by a delicious typical Costa Rican lunch. We have 2 identical class 3-4 runs on 2 different rivers, the Sarapiqui river and the Toro river. Each are identical runs and only 15 minutes apart . We determine which river we run each morning depending on the most optimal water levels guaranteeing that you will have the most optimal river experience available.
