Rapids!!!


When you hear the word Rapids, you would think of very fast and strong water.... and.... you're absolutely right!!!!
>>>You don't want to be in there!!!

Rapids is a section of a river where the river bed has a relatively steep gradient causing an increase in water velocity and turbulence. As flowing water splashes over and around the rocks, air bubbles become mixed in with it and portions of the surface acquire a white colour, forming what is called "whitewater".
