Matters Need Attention
Don’t Go Beyond Your Physical Limitation
Even if you are a good swimmer, understand about your physical limitation and never go beyond it while in rafting activity. Take basic swimming lessons before undergoing this water sport. Even upper body exercises are very much beneficial.
Avoid Going Rafting Alone
Never go alone on a rafting trip alone. Always hire a guide or an instructor. You can fully enjoy your rafting trip under professional and supervised guidance.
No Alcohol
Never ever consume alcohol before starting on a river rafting trip, as drinking alcohol before rafting will not only put your life at risk but of the entire group who is on the trip with you.
Wear a Life Jacket Always
Always select a lifejacket you feel quite comfortable in. Do not act in haste while selecting the lifejacket. Do not wear vests which are oversized.
Raft in Daylight
Never prefer to go rafting in the dark. Make sure that you reach the end point before it starts getting dark.
Avoid Carrying Valuables
Carry a few dry bags to safely store some personal items. However, it is advisable that you avoid carrying things like wallet, car keys etc.
