On the Water

On the Water

Experience the rush of the river, the leisure of the lakes, be captivated by the creeks and seduced by our streams.

You’re never more than a few minutes walk, ride or drive from the water. So whether it’s a peaceful paddle, a rebellious rapid, wicked wakeboarding or fabulous fishing, these waters welcome you.

Meander down a magical river on your favourite floatie or splash out for the vacation of a lifetime on an epic houseboat. BYO Boat or get geared up by renting from a number of providers. Short a few lifejackets for the kids? Many of our boat launches are equipped with community funded PFD loaner stations ensuring you can have fun and stay safe.

The Shuswap Watershed unites us as communities.
