Rafting Jaco Beach
Ríos Tropicales was created in 1985 to share the beauty and abundant white water of the rivers of Costa Rica with the rest of the world. Our commitment to high quality, safety and personable service have helped us become the largest white water rafting and sea kayaking outfitter in Latin America. Ríos Tropicales has been recognized internationally for its efforts in conservation, reforestation and education of the local population.
The owners and guides have not only explored and developed rivers in Costa Rica, but also around the world. Authors of "The Rivers of Costa Rica" and proud expeditioners, our guides have experience unmatched by any other local company in Costa Rica. They have participated in Olympic games, and several rafting and kayaking World Championships.
RIO SAVEGRE ONE DAY (CLASS II-III)
Considered one of the cleanest rivers in Central America; the Savegre is an authentic full day adventure: relaxation and pure action while enjoying the fantastic landscapes. Due to it's biodiversity, the Savegre River Valley is nowadays a center of interest for scientific research.
This adventure starts with an early Costa Rican breakfast (other options available) in town, and then we drive south of Quepos on our a/c minibus. It takes 1 ½ hours through African oil palms, Teak reforestation projects and incredible landscapes to the river put in.
After a safety briefing we start maneuvering rapids like “Boca Diablo” and “Roller Coaster”. We stop for a short view of some amazing waterfalls and prepare a snack while you relax on the river shore. Before the end we hit the newly formed (as of 10/06) “Screaming Child” rapid and then the river tames down for a while until we meet with our mini bus. A five minute drive will take you to Silencio Lodge where a hot Costarican meal will be served on your table. After lunch is a 45 minute drive to Quepos.
Included:
Transfers from Manuel Antonio/Quepos to and from Savegre River; breakfast at “El Patio”, river snack, Lunch at Silencio Lodge; all the specialized gear needed for the activity (helmets, life jackets, paddles); professional and bilingual white water rafting guides.
Not Included:
