River Levels and Minimum Number
PLEASE BE AWARE this activity requires a minimum of 4 people and safe levels on the soca to run. It is very rare to not have these, and the river level is decided by the local authorities. In the event of this we will relocate to another section of the Soca river or postpone to another date if required.
