Lions Club Tube Rental and Shuttle Service

Join us for a relaxing escape to the San Marcos River where the water is 72º all year round! Enjoy scenic river views, winding your way through nature's wonders, and soaking in the sun. Our float lasts about an hour and ends just before the three falls at Rio Vista Park. (Take at your own risk!)

Our Tube Rentals and Shuttle Passes are Unlimited so you can enjoy the float as many times as you'd like between 10AM and 6:30PM! (7:30 on Thursdays) Using our shuttle means you don't have to worry about logistics—we've got you covered from start to finish. Plus, since our rentals are valid for all-day, you have the freedom to explore at your own pace, grab a bite to eat downtown before you float again, and create unforgettable memories along the way.

But remember, the river awaits rain or shine!

Be sure to check weather and river conditions for the ultimate experience. We will provide a weather alert on this page and if you're not sure feel free to call us!

Join us at Lions Club Tube Rental and splash into a day of excitement and adventure!
