Tourism and Leisure
Along with Vancouver, Victoria, Whistler and the Rockies, the Okanagan is one of the province's prime tourist destinations. Its beautiful scenery, warm climate, provincial parks and beaches attract holiday seekers from Canada, the U.S. and beyond.
Tennis, golfing, hiking, mountain lake fishing, water sports, skiing, orchard touring and wine tasting are just some of the activities from which to choose during a stay at any of the numerous bed and breakfasts and deluxe resorts throughout the valley. Hostelling is becoming more popular, and Silver Star (northeast of Vernon) and Okanagan (south of Kelowna) provincial parks provide nature lovers with excellent camping and canoeing opportunities.
