Guests call it the best rafting they’ve ever done. The Chorro Rafting Tour is a Class IV–V white-water trip on the upper Naranjo River, 45 minutes from Manuel Antonio. When most rivers in Costa Rica run low, Chorro roars. The river squeezes into a rock canyon and races through one rapid after another: tight turns around huge boulders, steep drops, Dragon’s Tail, Stacy’s Lament and El Chorro itself. Between rapids, look up: sheer cliffs and waterfalls running down the rock. H2O Adventures was the first company to run this gorge commercially back in 2004. On every Chorro trip, a lead raft goes ahead to check the line. Halfway down, we stop for a swim, an optional cliff jump and a snack. No experience needed. Season: December 15 to April 30. Options: Private (your group only, minimum 2 people), Small Group (shared with other guests, minimum 3 people) or Just Rafting (no transport: you meet us in Esquipulas with your own car, minimum 4 people). Minimum age 14.

Dropping a stunning 100 feet per mile, just 40 minutes from Manuel Antonio National Park, breathes the start of Costa Rica’s best commercial whitewater adventure. Chorro section starts in the mountain village of Esquipulas. Our route carves deep into the river’s exposed bedrock, making this thrilling section of the Naranjo River an exception to the geological youth of Costa Rica. This 3km canyon delights the adventure seeker with fun drops and steep runs through 12 technical narrows. January is the high water month. Lots of thrills! In February the river runs at medium level. March and April the rapids become steep and technical. Never a dull moment. Paddle Hard! Get down…Hi Five!! Be ready!! to bounce and squeeze through the gorge’s tight rock walls, maneuver and carve around massive boulders and bends, and sweep down drops through challenging unforgettable chutes. Dragon’s Tail, Chorro Rapid and Stacy’s Lament are some of the challenges that you will paddle through.
