This section is a 9 mile descent with a beautiful combination of wildlife, clear water, deep pools, and jungle scenery. La Virgin is the most popular whitewater run on the Sarapiqui River. Generally this is more difficult whitewater than the lower section, which is only class I /II. The lower section is a perfect section to see wildlife and beautiful vegetation. During our rafting trip, we will have lunch on the river and spend some time swimming and relaxing along the river bank. Depending on your vacation needs, we can arrange another trip or destination point.
Our whitewater rafting trip include: Transport from San José - Turrialba - south Caribbean. Breakfast is included only for those who are coming from San José and the south Caribbean. Lunch is provided on the river for everyone. Top of the line river gear, only experienced guides, and a private photographer ready to capture the awesome natural beauty and the amazing collection of memories for you to take home.
