Days 26 & 27: Rafting on the Rio Cangrejal

---

Situated about 9 clicks from La Ceiba, the Jungle River Lodge is on the banks of the Rio Cangrejal, surrounded by desnse rainforest on all sides. Rockie outcrops create natural pools and perfect cliff diving opportunities for guests. Although it's probably important to note that you should ask the guys who run the lodge first, as they know the safe places to jump.

La Ceiba is hailed as Central America's Rafting capital and it did not disappoint; rapids graded 3 to 5 were more than sufficient to give us all white knuckles and the rafting was almost over too quickly. In addition, it poured with rain throughout, so the river was running wild due to greater pressure at the source. Brilliant fun.
