Colorado River Daily Rafting – Castle Valley

When Moab’s temperatures rise, there’s no better place to cool off than on the Colorado River. Our afternoon half day rafting trip through Castle Valley, also known as the Fisher Towers section, offers a relaxing and scenic way to experience Moab’s iconic red rock landscapes from the water.

This beautiful stretch of the Colorado River combines long, calm sections perfect for taking in the scenery with fun, splashy Class I and II rapids, along with seasonal Class III rapids that add just the right amount of excitement. Towering sandstone cliffs, dramatic canyon walls, and endless desert vistas make this one of the most scenic rafting trips near Moab.

The journey begins with a scenic 55 minute shuttle from downtown Moab to the river, offering incredible views before you ever launch. Once on the water, your guide will share the area's fascinating geology, history, and wildlife while you enjoy a relaxing float through one of Utah's most spectacular river corridors. On warm days, there are opportunities to cool off with a swim when conditions allow.

Looking for a little more adventure? Upgrade your experience with an inflatable kayak (ducky) and paddle your own boat through the rapids. It's the perfect way to add more excitement while still enjoying the same incredible scenery.
