Whitewater Rafting is a  recreational activity utilizing a raft to navigate a river or other bodies of  water. This is usually done on whitewater or different degrees of rough water, in order to  thrill and excite the  raft passengers. The development of this activity as a  leisure sport  has become popular since the mid 1970s.

 

Whitewater Rafting in the  Philippines originally  started as a “hobby” by a group of outdoor sports  enthusiasts  organized by the Cagayan de  Oro Whitewater Rafting Adventure (CDOWRRA) sometime in the month of June  year 1995 led by Mr. Rupert M. Domingo and his group with the goal of introducing whitewater rafting sport in  the  country. However, the group has been involved in river expeditions  and  explorations; it took 10 years for Mr.  Domingo and his partner Julius Bioco to transform their passion into a thriving business serving local and  foreign  clients. From 1985 to 1995, they surveyed the river by  sections, making  repeated crossing on inflated tire tubes or crude  floats made of banana trunks.  Painstakingly, they identified the  different channels and stretches of the  river. Studying the  characteristics and honing their skills in paddling the  wild rapids of  Cagayan de Oro River to perfection. – raftingadventurephilippines.com
