Huatulco River Float
Moderate Activity
Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.
The natural, breath-taking surroundings of the Copalita River make this active water expedition one of the most memorable days you'll ever experience in this gorgeous part of the world. A short ride in your open-air transportation through the colorful Oaxaca countryside delivers you to your friendly guide, and the put-in spot on the picturesque river.
Here, you will be offered a short but thorough river orientation, safety briefing and basic paddling instruction, as well as being fitted with your safety vests and helmets. Then it's time to get into your rafts for the joyful float along the Copalita River (Class 1-1.5 waters), travelling through lush vegetation, while enjoying the backdrop of pure, unspoiled jungle.
This charming float lasts up to an hour (depending on water flow), at which point you will land at a sandbank near La Bocana, the river's estuary. Here you will have time to savor the awe-inspiring views, the natural vistas and your guide will encourage you to look out for shore birds feeding at the water's edge. Take a refreshing dip in the river before boarding the bus back to port.
