Tara River Whitewater Rafting from Kotor
An early start and a long drive, then three hours on the Tara through the deepest canyon in Europe. The rapids are real but the river is forgiving in summer, and no previous experience is needed: you are with licensed skippers and everything from helmet to footwear is provided. There is a swim where the water flattens out, and lunch on the bank at Scepan Polje before the drive back.
