About This Access Site
San Joaquin River Confluence is a whitewater take-out site located in Merced County where the Merced River meets the San Joaquin River. This access point serves as an exit for boaters completing whitewater runs on the Merced River system. The confluence area represents an important transition zone where two significant river systems meet, making it a practical pull-out location for kayakers and canoeists running whitewater sections upstream. Access to this site provides an alternative to continuing downstream on the San Joaquin River after completing Merced River sections.
