Sarapiquí
One
day, Class III white-water rafting
The Sarapiquí
is a scenic white water river that winds its way through some of
Costa Rica's most lush and vibrant scenery. Free-flowing, it has
its origins in clear mountain streams that tumble down through thick
rainforest, finally joining together in the crystal waters of the
beautiful Sarapiquí. Verdant forest reaches right up to the
river's sun-basked banks. If Matisse had come to Costa Rica, this
is what he would have painted! This
narrow, low-volume river is ideal for white-water novices, as
well as families, all of whom will enjoy its moderately flowing
rapids, interspersed with tranquil stretches. The journey is also
excellent for bird-watchers and other nature lovers, as the river
stretches its way through lush vegetation that is home to hummingbirds,
toucans, woodpeckers, and scores of other native bird species.
Don't miss this classic tropical river experience!
We will pick
you up from your San José hotel, driving approximately
2 1/2 hours to the river put-in. A traditional breakfast is served
at a restaurant en route. After a short safety briefing, you will
rig your raft and begin the journey downriver. Lunch is served
on the banks of the river. Take out will be in the afternoon,
at which time you can change into dry clothes in our private restroom
facilities before your return to San José.
