Naranjo River 1/2 day trip

Class II & III (class -IV green season)

If you are looking for a fun packed half day rafting tour from Manuel Antonio, the Naranjo river for the action seekers is a must !

Just outside of Quepos, runs from April to December and is a consistently adrenaline pumping Class III and IV wild ride. It is recommended for the more physically fit thrill seekers. Your rafting tour starts on a 25 minute drive out of Manuel Antonio, through Naranjito and Villa Nueva, with surrounding lush forest and plantations, arriving at our own private put in place. Before getting river ready, we have a short walk through a working organic spice farm. Short there after you will be briefed on rafting safety and introduced to your PRO Rafting crew for the day!

The white water trip begins then, when the Naranjo River drops from the Costa Rican mountains and makes it way through pristine jungle gorges and canyons. It then winds its way around rocks and curves taking you on a wild, adventurous ride back down the river. After around 8 miles of thrill seeking rapids you will then drift to your take out area where a scrumptious snack of fruit and cookies will be waiting for you along with your transport back to your Manuel Antonio hotel.

What’s Your Adventure Level?

Adventure (Level)

For each of our trips, we’ve tried to provide an approximation of what adventure level (from easier to challenging) you should expect to encounter under typical circumstances. Many trips are suitable for reasonably-fit first-timers, but all our trips are made more enjoyable by a certain degree of personal fitness and an adventurous spirit.

Quick maneuvering may be required to avoid obstacles. Generally, children seven years and older may experience Class III rapids. Ideal for: Children aged seven and older, beginners to intermediates looking for manageable thrills.
m

Class IV
Powerful rapids featuring boulder gardens, large waves and/or small waterfalls. Quick and precise maneuvering is essential for successful runs.

Ideal for: Adventurous individuals, intermediates or aggressive beginners looking for a challenge.
m
