A place to relax

Our corner of the Okanagan is a destination you can visit year round. With some of the hottest temperatures and most sunny days in Canada, we enjoy longer seasons for lounging on the beach, golfing and boating, and hiking and biking. Highlights include spring and fall wine festivals, seasonal fruits, local community celebrations such as the Salmon Feast and sporting events like the Penticton Ironman. Don't forget about the Okanagan in the winter either - neighboring Apex is home to a world-class ski facility.
