Memories to last a lifetime
Explore The San Marcos River!
Journey to the Headwaters
Hundreds of clear springs bubble to life creating the headwaters of the San Marcos River and one of the most diverse freshwater ecosystems in Texas. San Marcos is home to seven different endangered plants and animals some of which are found only in the first few miles of the river and nowhere else on earth. Due to the springs that rise from the center of the city, the water temperature in San Marcos is a constant 72 degrees Fahrenheit even in January, providing opportunities for river recreation all year long.


Experience Adventure
Escape the ordinary and immerse yourself in a lush world of clear springs, waterfalls and wildlife. People have felt a connection to these waters for thousands of years and you will too. Plan your trip with us and you can experience the feeling of freedom that only a river and a boat can provide.

Book Your Next Group Outing
