Goa Adventures offers a overnight Trip Water Sports & Adventure Activity Event in the calm & soothing backwaters of Karnataka. Just a hop, skip & jump over the border (just 70 kms from Margao city & 110 kms from Panjim) one can participate in professionally organized water sports & adventure activities with total safety.
The Location
The River Edge Resort is only across the Goa Border in the coastal city of Karwar. People can have fun under the sun in one of the natures backwaters blessed by the Kali River flowing close by. The water sports adventure site is located in the meandering backwaters set apart by the ever flowing Kali River.
Why the Backwaters of Kali River?
The Kali River or Kalinadi is a river flowing through Karwar, Uttar Kannada district of Karnataka state. The backwaters of Kali River are always calm & still without any drastic change in currents.
The Water Sports & Adventure Activities
All participants will be getting to learn and experience, Canoeing, Kayaking and Tubing in the totally calm and still backwaters of the Kali River. Besides this all participants will have enough time to join on a trekking activity watching birds and doing rock climbing and rappelling.
The Water Sports Activities
Canoeing Activity
Canoes were developed by the native people of North America. Native Americans used fire to fell large trees. After the tree fell, the Native Americans would make small fires at the top of the log and then scrape out the ash. This process would keep going, until the log was hollowed out. The actual word we know today as "canoe" originated from the word Kenu meaning "dugout." These dugout canoes, essentially large tree trunks that were shaped and hollowed, were used by people to travel between islands.
Kayaking Activity
Kayaking is the use of a kayak for moving across water. Kayaking is differentiated from canoeing by the sitting position of the paddler & the number of blades on the paddle.
A kayak is defined by the International Canoe Federation as a boat where the paddler faces forward, legs in front, using a double bladed paddle. Almost all kayaks have closed decks, although there are many sit-on-top kayaks, and these boats are growing in popularity.
Tubing Activity
Tubing is a recreational activity of riding an inner tube filled with air, on water. In free-floating tubing, the tube riders are unattached and float naturally on the calm waters. Tubing can be done by children and adults too. All have to wear life safety jackets. Tubing is very relaxing for the nerves and provides a soothing and rejuvenating experience of letting the body float while your arms & legs do the paddling.
Swimming in Calm & Clean Backwaters.
Swimming can be done in the backwaters of the Kali River backwaters as it is totally safe. With Safety Instructors around and with a Speed Boat in “always ready position”. Also it is compulsory to wear life jackets always while in water. The backwaters being totally calm does not have any currents in the water. Swimming can be done with floats or without floats as the life jacket will support the swimmer when he/she stops swimming.
