About this Event

Welcome to the 2nd Annual “A Day On The Water!”

One of our most exciting and requested trips is BACK!

Come with us on an unforgettable self-guided whitewater rafting journey on the Delaware River with Black Field Trips in Port Jervis, NY. This experience is open to all, but please note: it does involve physical activity and a moderate fitness level is recommended. While you won’t be required to get in the water, you should be comfortable around it.

We’ll kick off our adventure with a 6:00 AM sharp meet-up at the LIRR Jamaica Station in Queens. From there, we’ll head upstate (approx. 2-hour drive) to start the rafting portion of the day. We’ll spend 3 to 4.5 hours paddling 9 miles of Class I–II rapids, surrounded by scenic views, laughter, and great energy led by the Black Field Trips team.

After the rafting run, we’ll stop for a meal at a local spot before heading back to Queens around 9:00 PM (depending on traffic).

🎒 Trip Includes:

  • Roundtrip transportation from NYC
  • Raft rental for the full experience
  • BFT-led, self-guided rafting through 9 miles of river
  • Access to a coolers for snacks and beverages
  • Good vibes

🧃 Bring with you:

  • Water, snacks
  • Beer or wine (cans/plastic only – no glass allowed on rafts)
  • A towel and change of clothes
  • Comfortable athletic/Swim wear (you will get splashed!)

🚨 Important Notes:

  • Must be comfortable around water
  • This trip involves physical paddling and mild endurance
  • Only 10 guest spots available — don’t wait to lock in your seat!

Let’s make a splah together 🛶✨
