Tube Texas

Float Down the Comal

All About the Comal

The Comal river is the shortest river in the world. Really!

But at a spare three miles, the Comal is packed with tubing fun. Not a rafting river, this is the amusement park of the Texas rivers. Easy, slow, and not too cold.

While the Guadalupe is often a frigid 65 degrees, the Comal is a comfortable, yet still refreshing 70 degrees.

There are plenty of wide easy stretches to the river, and the clarity is great. Spring fed, this short gem was made for floating.
