Sightseeing
The only company that provides inflatables for you to float down the Channel between Lake Okanagan and Skaha Lake. Hours are inconsistent, but advertised as 10:am - 7:pm. Best to have your own floatie, or just go buy one at Canadian Tire, or possibly borrow one from us. The activity is great fun and can take an hour or two depending on how high the water is at the time of year you go.
