Did You Know?
Fun Fact
Okanagan Lake is approximately 110 km long, running north to south through the Okanagan Valley. Kelowna is located on the eastern shore, boasting over 30 beautiful beaches – even our main street ends at the lake! To find detailed information to help you pick your beach, go to page 28.
The W.R. Bennett Bridge opened in May 2008, replacing the original Okanagan Lake Bridge, built in 1958. It is the only vehicular crossing over Okanagan Lake and the only floating bridge in Canada.

A Message from Walter Gray, Mayor of Kelowna On behalf of City Council and the residents of Kelowna, welcome to our city. Kelowna’s great climate, sparkling lake and surrounding mountains offer visitors an array of natural recreation options. Along with this natural beauty, visitors will also discover our fine dining, wineries, orchards, nightlife, ski hills, golf courses, and shopping to suit all tastes. Kelowna is the largest city in the B.C. Interior, with all the lifestyle advantages, infrastructure and facilities to support a growing population of more than 118,000 residents. But we’re not so big that we’ve lost the warm, western hospitality that has always made Kelowna a favourite destination for visitors. Our downtown Cultural District offers entertainment and sporting venues that host a variety of events for all ages and interests. With so much to see and do here in all seasons, we hope you experience all Kelowna has to offer – on this visit and in the future. Thank you for visiting Kelowna.

The Lake
26
the lake Okanagan Lake: hot summer days + refreshing water = endless fun. Ò Okanagan Lake is 110 km long and curves its way through the Okanagan Valley from north to south. Ò The graceful W.R. Bennett Bridge connects downtown Kelowna to the west side of the lake and
is Canada's only floating bridge.
Ò Kelowna and area has more than 30 beaches – many with playgrounds, picnic areas, concessions,
and restroom facilities. See page 28 to pick your fun spot.
Ò Enjoy the lake from a stand up paddleboard (SUP), houseboat, ski boat, charter, sailboat, jet ski,
flyboard, pedal boat, kayak, or canoe. See page 27 for possibiities.
Ò The lake is welcoming and refreshing, but it also has its mysteries – tombs and hidden coves.
Hike the Paul's Tomb trail near Knox Mountain and snorkel in the crystal clear water of the quiet, secluded bays.

For something rustic, rent a cabin just beyond the city where you can hike, fish, or do nothing at all but get back to nature.
Ò
Pitch your tent or pull your RV/trailer into one of our campgrounds or provincial parks, but don't forget to book ahead as they fill up quickly.
