Pontoon boat rentals on Okanagan Lake for up to 12 guests, departing the Water St boat launch in downtown Kelowna. No boating licence needed — you bring the people and the playlist, we handle the rest.
Why us
Most pontoon rentals on Okanagan Lake are single deck and self-drive. Ours is a 25-foot double decker with a certified captain aboard every trip — a boating experience without the licence, the trailer, or the stress.
Transport Canada certified, every trip. Part boat rental, part guided boat tour — your captain knows where the quiet coves are, so nobody has to drive.
Sun deck on top with lounge seating, shade below, and a slide off the back straight into the lake.
Tucked under the slide. Rare on a rental pontoon, and the thing guests are most surprised by.
The boat
Twenty-five feet, twelve guests, two decks. Built for a full day on the water rather than a quick lap of the bay.
We build the Canalake PDD25 as well as rent it out. We ran boat tours on Chestermere Lake in Alberta before bringing the boats to Okanagan Lake — same boats, same captains, better scenery. Interested in owning one?
On board
Twelve people, two decks, and enough seating that nobody ends up perched on a cooler. A party boat rental in Kelowna with room to actually spread out.
Rates
Per boat, not per person. Up to 12 guests, captain and fuel included, taxes extra. Popular for birthdays, bachelorette groups and family days on Okanagan Lake.

Self-drive pontoon rentals usually add fuel on top of the rate and hold a damage deposit against your card. With a captain aboard we do neither — and nobody in your group has to stay sober to drive the boat home.

“Denis captained the boat for our friends and family throughout the afternoon and into the night. He made sure everyone was safe and having a good time while he handled some difficult traffic on the lake at the fireworks. We recommend them and will be booking again.”Pamela Smith · Google review
Good to know
No. Every rental includes a Transport Canada certified captain who operates the boat. You just show up.
Up to 12 guests, plus your captain.
The Water St boat launch in downtown Kelowna. We send exact directions when you book.
No. There is a private changing room tucked under the slide for getting changed, but no toilet on board. Use the facilities at the launch before we head out — your captain can stop at a public dock during a longer trip if anyone needs to.
Absolutely. BC law restricts open alcohol on a boat under way, and your captain will explain how this works. No glass on board, please.
Your captain makes the call. If we cancel, you get a full refund or a free reschedule — whichever you prefer.
Very. Tell us ages when you book so we bring the right life jacket sizes.
No. The price covers your captain, fuel and all safety equipment, and there's no damage deposit or hold on your card. You just bring food and drinks.
Yes — birthdays, bachelorette groups and celebrations are most of what we do. Because your captain runs the boat, nobody in the group has to stay sober to drive it.
Your call. Tell your captain what kind of day you want — a guided boat tour of Okanagan Lake, a run out to the quiet swim coves, or a slow cruise at sunset.
Yes. There is a water slide running from the upper deck straight into Okanagan Lake, and a swim ladder to get back aboard. The waterslide is the reason most groups book us rather than a standard single deck pontoon, and it is included in every rental at no extra cost.
Sunscreen, towels, hats, food and drinks, and a phone with your playlist ready.
