About New Wave Rafting

Welcome to New Mexico Rafting with New Wave Rafting company.
New Wave Rafting Co. provides half-day, full-day and multi-day rafting and funyaking trips from March through the Labor Day weekend.

Our guides are the greatest - good-humored, responsible and dedicated to the outdoor life. They have received the best training on the river and SAFETY is their top priority. Your guide teaches you how and coordinates the crew's efforts. With New Wave YOU are an essential part of the rafting action.

We use larger self-bailing rafts on the harder/high water runs. They are safer and drier. For late summer we pull out our sport fleet-smaller boats and funyaks that make threading the low water rock gardens big fun! New Wave provides you with the best boat for the job.

Robust meals, including our lavish all-you-can-eat lunch buffet, are standard operating procedure.

We wouldn't be on the river without you. We appreciate our guests and love our work. We don't take you for granted.
