Kayak Classes

Kayak Classes Costa Rica Whitewater Kayaking is a rapidly growing adventure sport that in recent years has becoming more accessible to persons from all walks of life. As with rafting, kayaking is an excellent option for enjoying the water and outdoors but in a more individual way. A kayak is more versatile than a raft on the river, with the possibility of quickly maneuvering in and out of currents, stopping completely in the middle of strong rapids and even paddling against the current to ferry across streams.

We offer beginner to advanced kayak programs on the nearby Pejibaye and Pacuare Rivers. Beginner programs include standard river safety, self-rescue systems, basic paddling technique, eskimo roll instruction and introductory river running skills. Intermediate boaters can learn techniques on advanced eddy hopping, boof and waterfall approach, flatwater playing, wave surfing, rodeo playboating and follow-through roll technique.

Whether it´s paddling down a gentle mountain stream or making aggressive moves to avoid rocks and obstacles, kayaking instills a feeling of adventure and self-accomplishment that´s hard to describe.
