Mexico - Santa Maria del Rio - Chiapas River - Cascada de Tamul - Sumidero Canyon: The Santa Maria has several boatable sections, but the best whitewater is contained in the third and forth canyons. This section of the river can be described best in three sections. Upon reaching the take out at the base of Cascada De Tamul, paddlers must climb a series of ladders to reach the top of the falls and then hike quite a ways upstream to a dead end road. The action starts off slow in the third canyon as the walls rise

Cascada de Tamul, Rio Tampaon: Tamul is one of the Huasteca Potosina’s most spectacular waterfalls. This is the closest you can get and it takes two hours of hard row against the river current. Water plunges 105m into the Río Santa Maria, which becomes the Tampaon. It’s setting, in a canyon between two high rocky walls forest, is spectacular. To see the falls, you can drive to the top entrance though the most fun way is to paddle up river in a wooden lancha-boat.


Grijalva (Mezcalapa) River: The river rises in Chiapas highlands and flows from Chiapas to the state of Tabasco through the Sumidero Canyon into the Bay of Campeche. The 480 km long river in southeastern Mexico, has a 2,200-foot-per-mile descent with waterfalls measuring 80, 90, 60, 20, and 40 feet. When it comes to pushing the boundaries of kayaking, steep creeking is the game, Mexico is the place:
