Full description

River to Reef Adventure

Experience Jamaica from river to reef on our White River Rafting & Reef Snorkeling Adventure, an exciting Ocho Rios combination that takes you from the cool waters of the White River directly into the Caribbean Sea.

Your adventure begins on the beautiful White River, one of Ocho Rios’ best-known natural waterways.

Surrounded by tropical vegetation, settle in for a guided rafting journey through the river’s refreshing water and lush Jamaican scenery. The White River is known for its clear water and distinctive white limestone riverbed, and rafting is one of the outdoor activities for which the area is particularly popular.

Enjoy the changing pace of the river as your guide takes you downstream, with tropical greenery lining the banks and the sounds of Jamaica’s countryside surrounding you.

But when your rafting adventure ends, your water adventure isn’t over.

This is where the experience becomes something special.

Step off your raft and connect directly with your waiting snorkeling boat — no long transfer, no returning to your vehicle and no unnecessary break between activities.

From the river, you’re heading straight for the Caribbean.

Climb aboard and enjoy the boat ride out toward your snorkeling location, taking in views of Jamaica’s coastline from the sea.

Then it’s time to get into the water.

Explore beneath the surface on a guided Ocho Rios snorkeling experience, where you can look for tropical fish, coral and other Caribbean marine life while enjoying the warm sea.

Whether you’re an experienced snorkeler or simply looking forward to seeing Jamaica from below the surface, the combination gives you two completely different water experiences in one smooth adventure.

First, the freshwater beauty and energy of the White River.

Then, the blue Caribbean Sea and underwater world of Ocho Rios.

No backtracking.

No second road transfer between adventures.

Just step off the raft, board the boat and keep exploring.

River. Reef. One unforgettable Jamaican adventure.

 


The Experience

1. White River Rafting

Start your adventure surrounded by the lush Jamaican countryside as you make your way along the White River.

Cool water, tropical vegetation and the natural river environment make this a completely different experience from the beaches and resorts of Ocho Rios.

2. River-to-Boat Connection

When your rafting experience finishes, there is no need to return to your transportation.

Step off the raft and connect directly with the boat that will take you on the next part of your adventure.

This seamless transition is one of the biggest advantages of this combination.

3. Boat Ride & Reef Snorkeling

Swap the freshwater river for the Caribbean Sea as your boat takes you toward the snorkeling area.

Enter the warm water and enjoy time exploring beneath the surface, looking for reef fish, coral and other marine life.

Marine-life sightings and underwater visibility naturally vary with sea and weather conditions.

4. Return

After snorkeling, relax aboard the boat as you return from your Caribbean adventure before continuing with your return transportation.
