lodge sarapiqui

Beautiful river (Class II-III), good trip for beginners. Can be run out of San José or Arenal area, from mid May to mid March.
This Atlantic slope river has something for everyone.
with wild times at the top, a gentle float at the bottom and fine section of intermediate white water in between. This picturesque river is ideal for nature lovers, particularly bird watchers.
San Miguel - La Virgen(Class IV-V):Narrow channels and lots of boulders mean that you're unlikely to see a raft attempting this congested section of the Sarapiquí.
Experienced kayakers, however, relish the challenge of its rocks and big drops.
La Virgen - Chilamate:This is a great run for first timers, especially those who like a bit of ecotourism with white eater excitement.
The seven miles section features flashes of difficulty among mostly moderate rapids in beautiful clean water where river otters play.
The river runs through lowland wet forest with truly spectacular bird watching.
Chilamate - Puerto Viejo(ClassI-III):This section is pretty much flat water all the way, wich might not do much for your adrenaline level but which will afford you an opportunity to have a memorable wildlife experience as you float along.
If you are lucky you maight spot an otter playing in the water, and you'll almost certainly see monkeys and lots of birds, including toucans, parrots, herons, hawks and big kingfishers.
