Wakeboarding in the Jeita Grotto

The Jeita Grotto in Lebanon is one of the world’s natural marvels.  Two caves form the upper and lower galleries that span almost nine kilometers.  Walkways have been built on the upper gallery so that tourists can view the caves without disturbing anything, while an underground river flows through the bottom.  That is where professional wakeboarder, Duncan Zuur was allowed to demonstrate his skills while surrounded by the cave’s spectacular formations.

Jeita Grotto’s water temperature was not as cold as it used to be throughout the year, when it received an unusual visitor. It was not affected by Lebanon’s winter storms or freezing weather, and its water became warm and stirred by Red Bull athlete Duncan Zuur’s wakeboarding stunts.
