About Coyote Cruises
Coyote Cruises runs the classic summer float on the Penticton River Channel, the 7 km waterway that links Okanagan Lake to Skaha Lake. The launch base sits at 215 Riverside Drive near the north end of the channel, a short walk from Okanagan Beach, and the float has been a Penticton summer tradition for decades, with some guests coming back after more than 20 years.
The core offer is the tube and bus combo: rent a single or double tube, drift down the channel at the pace of the current, then catch the Coyote Cruises shuttle bus back to the start. Larger groups can rent party islands that hold several people at once, and dry bags are available for phones and keys. A typical float takes roughly 1.5 to 3 hours depending on water flow, and the operation runs through the warm summer months.
What makes the experience easy is that everything is handled in one stop. There is no need to bring your own gear or arrange a second car at the take-out, since the tube, the float, and the ride back are packaged together. It suits families, friend groups, and visitors who want a low-effort, uniquely Penticton way to spend a hot afternoon on the water.
