Floating The River Is Fun and Easy

Summer time in Texas. It's hot. Hit the rivers, bask in the sun, and cool down. Floating the river is the place to be.

Winter 2009 - Update

We're getting GREAT rain! Bob Rose, meterologist for the LCRA, expects the drought to be reversed by the winter, which will be excellent tubing in 2010!

What is Tubing?

Tubing (or "toobing", or "floating") is floating down a slow moving river in an oversized inner tube. Most people get a cooler for cold drinks, put it in another inner tube, and tie it to one of the tubers. Then the whole party latches on to the cooler tube flotilla-style and sits back for a relaxing time.

The Origins of Tubing

Who can say it isn't simple? Texas summers are like an oven. Our spring-fed rivers are icy cold. Some mad genius grabbed an inner tube and jumped in!

What's New At Tube Texas?

We're working to give you top notch river and rafting information, so be sure to drop us a line with your thoughts if you've got a moment.

About Us

We love water sports — floating the Texas rivers is no exception — and want to share that others. We give you up to date information about tubing trips and river conditions.

We are not outfitters; we do not sell or rent inner tubes. We do not take reservations for tubing trips.

We're interested in hearing from tubers and from outfitters. Contact us!

Also, if you ask us, it's tubing, not toobing. However, in Texas tubing companies often use "toobing".
