Jungle River Tubing and Beach Adventure on the Rio Bueno

What to expect on the day

Your guide helps you into a helmet and life jacket and gives a short safety talk. Then you float down the Rio Bueno through a jungle river valley, with a mix of rapids and calm stretches. There is a platform where you can jump into a lagoon, and a waterfall hike and swim. As the current fades, you switch to a raft and paddle out into the Caribbean Sea to Bengal Beach, a small private beach with a beach bar.
