“Exclusive to Shuswap lake, no other businesses can operate like this one,” the ad says. “Positioned as one of the most celebrated tourist spots in the Okanagan since 2008, the Shuswap Shark Shack provides a distinctive dining experience on a floating barge in the middle of the scenic Cinnemousun narrows.”

The listing says that the Shark Shack is a three-barge arrangement adding up to 197 feet long. It also includes sleeping quarters for about 15 people to serve the operations of the bar and restaurant along with the store and boat rental business.

The barge is assessed at over $1 million and the sale includes two-speed boats.
