Class III-IV

Get ready for an unforgettable whitewater rafting adventure on Costa Rica’s beautiful Sarapiquí River. Paddle through jungle-lined canyons and enjoy exciting yet approachable Class III rapids, offering the perfect balance of action and relaxation. Along the way, take in breathtaking views of lush rainforest, flowing waterfalls, and surrounding mountain landscapes. There are calm sections where you can float, swim, and truly connect with the natural beauty of the river. Our internationally certified guides ensure safety and fun, share paddling techniques, and point out wildlife, tropical birds, and native plants that make the rainforest come alive. At Sarapiquí Outdoor Center, rafting is more than an adventure — it’s an expression of our philosophy Healing with Nature. The rhythm of the river clears your mind, the jungle restores your balance, and every rapid becomes a moment of joy, confidence, and connection with nature.
