Meet Kelowna Cruises

Kelowna Cruises is owned and operated by Captain Mike Reddecliff. Originally from Oakville, Ontario, Mike moved to the Shuswap post-University, where he gained experience in the boating industry, working on the dock and as an Assistant Operations Manager at a houseboat company for nearly a decade. Mike went on to purchase his first boat, the Lake Lounge on Okanagan, (formerly the Okanagan Princess) in 2010. In 2015, Mike added a second boat, the Boardroom, and established Kelowna Cruises.

Reasons to choose Kelowna Cruises

Your Trusted Cruise Operator

Kelowna Cruises has been operating since 2010. Every year we welcome repeat visitors and charter events.

Safety is Our Priority

Kelowna Cruises is a Transport Canada certified operator. Our crew participates in regular training drills and certifications and our vessels undergo annual fire, propane, and electrical inspections. We are committed to providing a safe experience.

Excellent, Locally Sourced Food

We work with local food suppliers, including L & D Meats and Codfathers, to provide the best wild salmon and freshest meats. The limited size of the kitchen and storage area has always led us to strive to deliver simple but good food.

Backdrop

There are a lot of venues that are lakeview or even lakefront, but being ON Okanagan Lake is completely different. Kelowna Cruises provides guests with a unique and memorable venue for your corporate party, wedding, celebration, or any other events. Our service is unlike any other in the Okanagan Valley. Come on board and create lasting memories with views of lush mountains, the pristine waters of Okanagan Lake, rolling vineyard, and the Kelowna cityscape at dusk.

The staff there is really friendly, from the captain to the bartender and the cook. Overall a nice pleasant cruise and dinner with the family.

Manuel Avatar Manuel

Really good cruise, except there is not enough seating below for supper guests. There was a large group many of whom didn’t eat that went directly down below and stayed there throughout. The captain stated seating was a free for all. I would suggest that with a meal ticket that indoor seating should be provided, or at least during meal time that non eating guests be asked to vacate their seats in favour of those that are eating. Our cruise was quite windy, the staff were fantastic. The food was ok, nothing too special. While my steak was undercooked, the salmon and chicken were excellent. We really enjoyed our cruise, it didn’t go a great distance, but was nonetheless quite scenic. What we were really disturbed with was the indemnity waiver that was online. We did not sign it and would not, but no one checked so all good.
