Well we’ve got the place and we don’t have a can ban! Here are some tips to make it as easy as possible.
Squad Up! Tubing is way more fun with friends. And guess what? If you can get at least 5 buddies to go with you, especially on a day other than Saturday, you are set! Weekends require at least 8 in your crew!
Location, Location, Location! You’re going to the San Marcos River, about 45 minutes away from Austin. This place is a Texas GEM!
Plan for About 6 Hours: The whole trip — travel time included — will take around six hours. Floating time itself, about 3.5 hours of pure bliss.
Keep Your Drinks Cold!! You get a free cooler and a tube for your cooler in every group of 6! It is best to keep your drinks nice and cold!
Timing is everything. Know that we can pick your group up within a 15-minute radius of the JW Marriott in Austin. Now you have no excuse to be late or plan appropriately!
Sunscreen is your BFF: Seriously, slather it on thick. Nobody wants to look like a lobster on their Insta pics. And reapply, reapply, reapply!
Hydrate! Bring plenty of water. The Texas sun is no joke. You need to chug water the whole time.
What to Wear: swimsuit and maybe bring quick-drying clothes, like athletic shorts and a breathable shirt. No jeans, lol!
Don’t be a Litterbug: Pack out everything you pack in. Keep the San Marcos River beautiful! Leave No Trace
Be Prepared for Anything: If the weather gets wild, no worries! You can always switch your tubing adventure to a wine, distillery, or brewery tour instead (click to see options). Win-win!
