All at no extra cost! We have small  coolers and dry bags available for rent if you would like to show up and not have to bring those items with you. The White River is a relaxing float with beautiful landscapes and lots of wildlife. If you would like to book a large group trip just let us know. You can call or text us anytime: 870.676.9448.

Our full day float is a 10.5 mile float from Wildcat Shoals Boat Ramp in Cotter, Arkansas to the Rim Shoals Access in Mountain Home, Arkansas. The full day float usually takes anywhere from 5 to 7 hours depending on water generation from the Bull Shoals Dam and how many stops you make. The shuttle ride back to your vehicle only takes around 13 minutes and is completely paved roads. Thank you for visiting WhitRiverFloats.com and we look forward to meeting you on the White River!

FAQ

The essential guide to kayaking on the White River.

  • We provide a wide range of kayaks to meet various preferences. Our selection includes single kayaks for solo adventures (Sit-In and Sit-On style), fishing kayaks with rod holders and children size kayaks for the smaller paddler. Each type of kayak is tailored for specific persons and activities, ensuring that whether you're enjoying the calm current guided paddle or an adventurous fishing trip, we have a wide selection of kayaks for your needs.

  • Renting a kayak from us is easy and convenient. Start by selecting your full day kayak rental date online. Next, book your rental through our website or by phone, book with your credit card. We will call or text you with a confirmation of your online reservation. You simply drive to the starting put-in location on the White River the date you reserve and we supply the kayak, a life vest, a paddle, a paddle tether, a litter bag and a dry box for your possessions that need to stay dry. Once you’re done, simply return the kayak and the other supplies to us at the end of your rental and we will be there at the take-out location to pick you up in our 14 passenger van and return you to your vehicle. It's that easy and we hope you enjoy every moment on the White River!

  • For a safe and enjoyable kayaking outing, consider packing the following essentials: wear quick-drying clothing appropriate for the weather and avoid cotton as it holds moisture. Protect yourself from the sun with sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat, even on cloudy days. Bring along water and snacks to stay hydrated and energized, especially for longer trips. Use a waterproof bag to keep your valuables like phones and cameras dry. We supply a small dry box with your kayak rental. While we supply life vests, additional safety items like a whistle or towel to cover your legs could be beneficial. These items will help make your kayaking experience more comfortable and memorable.
