Spend your days in a paradise surrounded by stunning, panoramic vistas, a perfect, four-season climate, and a magnificent, captivating lake. Okanagan locals relish in their good fortune, living in this idyll that others can only dream about.
The Okanagan is a place of sunshine and remarkable beauty. Those who live and work here enjoy mild winters and warm summers, friendly people, excellent restaurants, and endless recreational opportunities.
Here, first-class wineries and lush hillsides connect the sandy beaches to the inviting mountains.

A patchwork of lakes and streams, including Okanagan Lake, makes this area ideal for water sports, fishing, and boating. The region’s championship golf courses each boast unique terrain and incredible views.
The Okanagan Valley has a rich cultural and artistic heritage, too. It’s home to notable and talented artists, sculptors, photographers, and artisans. Our year-long schedule of wine, art, and music festivals means there’s a reason to celebrate every season. Museum events, sports, and live entertainment fill the calendar. Local and touring performances of ballet, symphony, theatre, comedy, and musical headliners make the Okanagan a vibrant and exciting place to be.
