Mention Costa Rica to someone and invariably the subject of white water rafting comes up. In fact, Costa Rica has become almost synonymous with world-class white water rafting adventure. With so many river rafting tours available, and with new outfitters popping up seemingly every day, it may seem hard to believe that only a couple of decades ago, river rafting was the sole domain of a few daring adventurers. Costa Rica Nature Adventures is one of a select group of visionary companies whose dedication and commitment to Costa Rica white water rafting has helped lift the sport to the wide spread prominence it enjoys today. A river rafting pioneer, our company has continually been on the forefront with new and innovative ideas that have enhanced the sport’s public image, and has promoted safety standards and improvements to make rafting a much safer and enjoyable experience.
