Taste a little bit of everything Penticton has to offer. Buffeted to the south by Skaha Lake one of the warmest bodies of water in British Columbia, and in the north by the grandeur of Okanagan Lake, this vibrant waterfront city has a flavour and a season to please everyone.

To the west? Mountains that reach up the “locals know” ski hill of Apex Mountain Resort, and nordic trails explored by foot, paw, and hoof alike as you breathe in fresh Okanagan air and snap selfies with the scenery behind you.

To the east? The Naramata Bench snakes its way along Okanagan Lake, offering a vast array of wineries to explore, including BC’s first farm gate winery, Lang Vineyards,  known for its Marechal Foch and German varietals like Riesling and Gewürztraminer.

Rent a boat from Penticton Boat Rentals and enjoy the peaceful tranquility on a lake, or get pampered at a local Spa after a long day exploring. Enjoy sandy beaches and lush parks with a book from Hooked On Books, or a brew from Teas and Weaves. Don’t forget to explore festivals and events throughout the year, and add them to your smartphone calendar, from spring’s Meadowlark Festival exploring nature, to July’s Elvis Festival exploring “the King of Rock’n’Roll”, the August’s family-friendly Peach Festival exploring the fruits of our valley, to the fall version of the Okanagan Wine Festival in October, exploring our latest
vintages.

Warm up your taste buds to explore Penticton.
