Water Channel was a digital cable television channel that aired programming devoted to water sports. It was the only channel of its kind in the world that focused on water lifestyle, featuring programming of interest to those who enjoy activities in and around water. Water Channel was independently owned and operated by MCE Television Networks Inc.

Programming focused on such activities as fishing, boating, surfing, diving, racing, water skiing, pleasure boating and more. The original television special "Pulling In" focused on surfing was created by Kauai Sound & Cinema and aired extensively on the Water Channel throughout the channel's existence.

Water Channel initially launched on Dish Network but was removed due to a contract dispute. It was also available on various Time Warner Cable and Cox Cable systems, however, in late 2009 the channel ceased operations.
