Fresh, Simple, and Made Just for You

Enjoy a taste of New Zealand-style real fruit ice cream right here in Lake Cowichan, BC. We blend your choice of frozen fruit with creamy vanilla ice cream—dairy full or dairy free—to create a perfectly smooth and refreshing treat.

Served in a Canadian-made waffle cone and made right in front of you, it’s a deliciously simple way to cool off after a day on the Cowichan River. No added colours, no artificial flavours—just real fruit, real ingredients, and real good ice cream.

Cowabunga Tubes

Float the Cowichan River in Comfort & Style

Drift down the Cowichan River the right way. Choose a comfortable regular tube or upgrade to a Swift Tube for a kayak-style ride. Either way, you can relax and enjoy an easygoing float through one of BC’s most scenic waterways. No stress—just good times on the river!

When you reach Little Beach, we’ve got your ride covered. Our shuttle service brings you back, so all you have to do is show up, kick back, and let the river do the rest.
