Description
This 16 km (10 miles) run is clearly divided into two sections. The first hour is very exciting, with big waves and long rapids followed by a stop for a picnic lunch at the most scenic beach on the river. The second half is more relaxed as the river enters the true lower Caribbean at which time your surroundings take on a jungle character and the wildlife is more plentiful. At the end of the descent, you will be able to shower and change clothes as well as relax with a cold beverage before being taken back to your hotel.
