So... What Makes An Okanagan Vacation Special?

An Okanagan vacation... Summer or winter, Okanagan BC travel brings visitors here for so many wonderful reasons.

Affordable and worry free, the Okanagan Valley BC is filled with everything you want to do, in one easy to get to and incredibly beautiful place.

It's really quite amazing that such a small region... (the Okanagan Valley lies in the southern interior British Columbia, Canada) ...can have so many things to see and do, all in an area that is less than one-fifth of the size of the entire province.

We are one family who has visited the Okanagan for our own vacations for many years.

We love it so much, that now we live and work here, and we still spend our winter and summer vacations in the Okanagan, too.

The Okanagan BC is known as the 'Napa of the North', Canada's Fruit Belt, Home of Ogopogo, The Best Beaches & Golf, and we just think it's one of the Most Beautiful Places to Visit in Canada! :-)

When we travel around the Okanagan we find a few things in common everywhere we visit...

...warm and friendly people, orchards and vineyards, and plenty of soft sandy beaches along beautiful lakes.
