FAMILY RAFTING TRIPS
Are there Costa Rica rafting trips the entire family can enjoy?
Yep.There are several to choose from in the incredible Arenal Volcano area. You can float the Corobici River from Lake Arenal. This is the calmest river in Costa Rica, perfect for the entire family from small children to those still having the soul of a child. You’ll float past Palo Verde National Park and enjoy the many birds and butterflies, iguanas, river otters, and monkeys along the way. This is a great Costa Rica vacation activity for the entire family. If you haven't checked it out yet, click here to visit
Lake Arenal.
There are a number of tour operators and you’ll have lots of options on your trip to Costa Rica. Take a half-day or full-day run or pick a package that includes a side-trip to the Los Pumas Rescue Center for wild cats. You can also float the White Rock River that flows past La Fortuna (the little town just outside of Arenal volcano) for another nice family rafting trip. Plan about five hours for this float. And, be sure to check out the magnificent Penas Blanca River, also in the area. This river has some sections of great white water and other sections for those who want a calm float as they travel Costa Rica. You’ll float through deep tropical gorges past volcanic hot-springs. An outstanding trip.
And, remember that these rivers all flow to the Pacific so you can also catch nice river trips in the Guanacaste area. For example, there's a gentle float trip down the Corobici (I told you about floating this river by Arenal, too) that you'll catch just outside of Liberia.So when you travel to Costa Rica and want some quiet, peaceful time along a beautiful river, remember these rafting vacations.
