Swasey River Expedition

This expedition takes us into the south western frontier of the the Cockscomb Basin and onto the amazing Swasey River (with it Scarlett MacCaws January through March). Our expedition starts with a 1.5 hr. ride from the coastal villages of Placencia and Seine Bight to our staging area of Maya Mopan on the Georgetown Rd. Once we arrive in Maya Mopan we will load our equipment onto to either ATV or Horses depending on the condition of the trail. Ironically our first camp is called “sal se puede” (leave if you can). And indeed we do. This place was once used by loggers several decades ago to Harvest the Mahogany trees, which were so very desired by the cabinet makers of Europe. In this pursuit little did the know they we going to be inenvertenly making roads for future river kayaking and rafting expeditions. We will spend four days traversing gorges, gazing at amazey senery, visit mayan villages, Scarlet McCaws and have a lot of fun.
