White Water Rafting

Exhilarating fun for all ages

Rafting is a half-day excursion and the actual session lasts for about 2½ hours. It’s great for all ages (10+) and offers a thrilling day out, run by a very professional, local rafting centre. They will brief you on kit use and safety before you go off to the rapids with your instructor and guide.

You will start off after a safety briefing and an introduction to the use of paddles and correct rafting techniques. You will join a big raft for eight to ten people with an instructor and guide onboard, to help drive you down the rapids. All rafters are armed with a paddle, so it’s very much a participation sport, and very satisfying too.

Every so often the raft will stop for a break in a calm patch of water where passengers can get out and go for a swim or jump of rocks into deep pools if conditions allow.
