ORCHARDS AND VINEYARDS

Kelowna is home to over 25 wineries along with a selection of breweries and distilleries to choose from. Kelowna wineries produce premium quality wines that regularly win national and international wine competitions and recognition. The sun-drenched valley surrounding Kelowna is dotted with farm-gate wineries, where each vintage is lovingly bottled by hand. Many wineries have unique and delicious food services available. Once your friends and family realize you live in Kelowna, the wine aficionados quickly appear!

In addition to the numerous wineries, the region’s micro-climate and predisposition for a long growing season allows for many different types of fruit to flourish. Throughout Kelowna it is very common to see orchards filled with fruits such as apples, cherries, peaches, plums and apricots. A growing number of agri-tourists are attracted to the Okanagan Valley as it has become one of the most prominent agricultural regions in BC.

OKANAGAN LAKE

The beautiful Okanagan Lake spans 110 km (68 miles) with the northernmost end reaching the quaint city of Vernon and at the southern tip of the lake, Penticton. Kelowna is situated almost halfway between these two cities. Okanagan Lake is enjoyed by many for all water sports including: boating, fishing, sailing, kayaking, swimming, paddle boarding and even the new sport of paddle board yoga! It is refreshing during the hot summer and it keeps Kelowna’s climate mild during the winter. Okanagan Lake is most famous for harboring the legendary lake creature – Ogopogo!
