Cagayan De Oro Water Rafting

Facebook Twitter

Kagay! The company we hired to experience this shout-and-shriek evoking adventure. The run was about 3 hours, and my friends who were mostly ladies had a screaming adventure of their lifetime.

Above is the documentation of how we managed to steer ourselves to the path of doom… But I’m suspicious it was the doing of our guides. Anyway, there was a person at the keeling side of the SOTAR (State Of The Art Raft) who was thrown off, and it happened to be me. Why, oh why me?

My buddy tried to save me by thrusting his paddle but no use, the current swept me away. Good thing I have advanced training in using the lifejacket, I just floated away, and did what the guides told us in case it would happen.

Anyway, it wasn’t a big deal. The river was safe and nobody was ever reported to have drowned there.

It was a REAL experience, a TV-like adventure which you could only dream about. I was there, and experienced the rapids first-hand. Those rapids I could describe as the raging waters inside a washing machine, amplified thousands of times over.

    I have been rafting and it is truly a wonderful experience. I didn’t get dumped out of the raft but I’m sure that was an experience also and one I don’t care to do myself. lol Thanks for the share and thanks for visiting my blog.

    God’s Blessings!

    This looks really exciting. Though I haven’t done water rafting yet, I feel scared looking at rough waters.

    Appreciate your comment on my blog. I always return comments and I am happy that I did. Your site is great. I really wish I had more time to travel to the outer “Less Traveled” parts of the Philippines. I hope to be able to experience more of the provinces in the near future. My last provincial trip was to Ilocos Sur. We were able to visit the house there of former Gov. Chavit. As always thank you again and take care. ;0)

    If you are an adrenalin junkie then try whitewater kayaking. It’s more fun and exciting than rafting. For more info see;
