Free Kayak Classes Professional instruction at no cost to participants. Equipment Access Kayaks, paddles, PFDs, helmets and the equipment needed to participate safely. Outdoor Experiences Positive time in nature that develops confidence, teamwork and community.

Kayaking changed my life. It gave me opportunities to work, travel, learn and build friendships around the world. Rivers of Opportunity was created to give young people in my community the chance to discover what the river can bring into their lives.

Help Us Create the Next Opportunity Every kayak, paddle, lesson, volunteer hour or contribution helps us bring another person to the river.

Your Adventure Supports the Mission When you travel or train with Jaguar Kayak Academy, you also help us continue providing free kayaking opportunities in Costa Rica.

Rivers of Opportunity grows through people who believe in giving others access to the river. Send us an email and tell us how you would like to help. We will personally respond and work with you to find the best way to turn your support into real opportunities for our community. Together, we can bring more people to the river. Thank you very much!
