Safety first
3-way safety system
Your safety is our main priority during a Canyon Experience. All our canyon leaders have years of experience and are trained & certified by the American Canyoneering Association. When rappelling or abseiling in the canyon we use our 3-way safety system to keep you safe at all times. Besides that you will get a brief training before each tour and wear safety gear including wetsuit, jacket, helmet, lifejacket and harness.
1. Rappel Control
During a rappel you will control your own speed. You will learn this easy skill during the brief training at the start of the adventure.
2. Belay Safety Line
This extra safety line is attached to your harness and controlled by the canyoning leader at the top of the rappel.
3. Fireman Support
The canyoning leader at the bottom of the rappel called the "fireman" is holding and guiding your rappel line as extra safety.

We go the extra mile!
We love to give our guests the best experience. We have a lot of fun guiding and teaching canyoning. It's our duty and we hear from our guests that we are good at it! :-)
Great adventure!
This was a great adventure and fun too. My husband who is normally scared of heights did great. I on the other hand who is normally not scared of heights was great that day. Barani was great at talking to help calm me down and took me the first few rapells. Nahji and Akeel were great on the ropes. The overall experience was great and the guys were funny too. They never forgot safety and always made sure everyone was ok!

Wonderful experience!!
Today was the second time in the canyon. The first time was in 2018 just after hurricane Maria. Nature has recovered very well after the hurricane. It was a great experience again just like the last time. Really beautiful! The guides are very professional and constantly pay attention to the safety of everyone.
