Penticton & Wine Country

Penticton's 2 kilometer-long sandy Okanagan Beach is just across the street, and the crystal clear waters of Okanagan Lake provide a fabulous playground for guests of all ages: swimming, canoeing, boating, water skiing or para-gliding. An amusement park is just up the street (about 2 blocks), the casino is about the same distance away, there are golf courses within a short drive, and of course there are the 80-odd wineries within an easy drive.
