Sunset On the River

About This Adventure

Sunset on the Colorado isn't just beautiful — it's transformative. As the sun drops below the rim, the 2,000-foot canyon walls cycle through a spectrum of color that no photograph fully captures. The river slows, the air cools, and the only sound is your paddle dipping into glassy water. Our guides know exactly which stretch to float, where to pause, and when to let the silence do the talking. Landing back at Red Cliffs Lodge as the stars begin to appear is the special kind of moment people seek in Moab, but rarely find.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Do I need paddling experience?+

  None at all. The current does most of the work, and your guide handles the rest. This is a relaxed float, not a whitewater run.

• Will I get wet?+

  Expect some splashing. Wear clothes you don't mind getting damp, or bring a dry bag for your phone.

• What time do we launch?+

  Launch time varies by season — typically 2 hours before sunset. We'll confirm the exact time when you book.

• Can kids join?+

  Yes, ages 6 and up. Children must be accompanied by an adult in the same watercraft.
