Yosemite Rafting & Water Sports

Stay cool on a warm day by spending some time down by the water.  Whether you're serious about fishing, or just serious about fun, the many rivers and lakes in Yosemite can provide just the right source of recreation.

Rafting
Rent a raft and float leisurely down the Merced River.  It’s fun, relaxing, and the views from the river are unbeatable.

Swimming
Whether you are interested in lounging by the river, or at one of our swimming pools, this is a restful and refreshing way to spend an afternoon.

Fishing
Yosemite has spectacular fishing in both the front and backcountry.  Fishing licenses are available at select locations within the park.

Testimonials

“To surprise my family one year , I planned a vacation at Curry Village. At the time we thought we'd only stay a few days and then continue on to Disneyland. Our daughters at the time were 8 & 10. Coming through the tunnel that opens to the magnificent Yosemite vista...and a tour of the valley floor on our first day...they didn't want to be anywhere but Yosemite! We were able to extend our visit a couple of extra days so that we could enjoy more day hikes and "dream" of making our way to Half Dome! Sipping coffee in the morning in the open auditorium at Camp Curry is a memory I will always savor. We try to return as often as we can. This vacation was one of the most memorable for our family.
