Martha Brae River Rafting
Activity Details
At the indicated time, we'll pick you up at your hotel in Runaway Bay and take you to the Martha Brae River, located on the northern coast of Jamaica.
We'll arrive at Rafter's Village, the embarkation area, equipped with leisure facilities such as bars and swimming pools and surrounded by beautiful lawns. Nearby is Miss Martha's Herb Garden, a charming garden of endemic plants with medicinal and healing properties. We'll check out this local oasis before boarding the bamboo raft that will take us on a pleasant ride down the Martha Brae River.
On a bamboo raft, we'll travel along 4 km (2.4 mi) of this river while you enjoy the beautiful scenery along its banks. During the trip, which lasts an hour and 15 minutes, the guide will tell you the famous legend of Martha Brae, after whom the river is named, as well as share interesting information about the local flora and fauna.
The bamboo raft ride on the Martha Brae River is one of the main attractions of all those who visit Runaway Bay. Celebrities like Chuck Norris, Jason Derulo, Johnny Cash, and even royalty like Queen Elizabeth II of England have wanted to enjoy this wonderful experience.
Finally, the boat will arrive at Rafter's Rest, the point where we'll pick you up and transfer you to your hotel, where you'll be dropped off after a total of 4 hours.
