Rafting Kids – It’s Their Time…
Gather kids and plenty of water and find the classic recipe for success. The liquid that sustains life has a huge fascination for little ones. Water got into the game, fun is guaranteed. From the warm shower to the bathtub at grandma’s house, from the club’s pool to swimming in the sea. Now, combine all this with the opportunity to connect with mother nature. Add a little adventure, energy and a lot of emotion.
Ready. Rafting for children has all the ingredients for the kids’ fun to be complete. The activity provides a ride on inflatable boats that glide through river rapids with the presence of specialized monitors.
Brasil Raft Park offers the Minirafting Kids program, formatted especially for little ones. The entire water journey is made on the stretch of the Paranhana River located within the park. But the adventure begins on land, on a walk with the guides to the “surf beach”. There they receive their first instructions and safety equipment (helmet and life jacket).
But before they go sliding down the Paranhana rapids, it’s time to dive and play in the river (only for those who want and with a life jacket, of course!). And there is also the surfing that we mentioned above. That’s right, boat surfing on a wave created by a natural drop in the riverbed. This part kids love…
From then on, the boats are placed in the water and… “Forward, go!” is the first instruction from the monitors who also serve as oars. Many other commands follow, ensuring animation and excitement from start to finish.
During the journey, children are monitored by three instructors and travel on the floor (bottom) of the boat, leaving them free to enjoy the adventure. On colder days, the park offers the rental of wetsuits and thermal boots. Instructors also share information about the plants and animals found in the park, a haven of the lush Atlantic Forest. Every now and then, a bird or wild animal crosses the path of the mini adventurers.
The best moments of the adventure are photographed and children can take home a CD with memories of the activity.
