county,
Tulsa Wave section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.
If you're coming from Tulsa it's not a long drive at all to the starting location, as you can see on the road map further down. The scenic beauty of Oklahoma and the cool fresh water make the trip here worthwhile. There are no other stretches to paddle along Arkansas River than the Tulsa Wave stretch. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit easier to master in this state than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that quite a few of the sections here are pretty easy. There are plenty of hotels here if you want
to spend a night, but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. This is an extremely short section so you'll have to walk back to the start over and over. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp.
