Rapids Jet
Time your ride with the release of water from Aratiatia Dam, when the Waikato River surges into life. Rapids Jet sends you through narrow canyons, across crystal-clear water and into the Nga Awa Purua rapids, where the boat spins, surfs pressure waves and races past the surrounding landscape. It is a fast, playful way to experience the river at its most energetic.
Life jackets are provided, with spray jackets supplied in cooler months. Trips are timed to the Aratiatia Dam water release.
We want every experience to be enjoyable and comfortable, so if you have any mobility or accessibility questions, please reach out to our team to discuss your needs and determine whether an experience is right for you.
