Lake Life & Outdoor Activities
The central jewel of Okanagan Valley, Lake Okanagan stretches from north of Kelowna all the way down to Penticton, is a boater’s and swimmer’s paradise: Rent a power boat or sail boat, paddle boards, or a canoe/kayak; or float down the channel between Okanagan Lake and Skaha Lake just south of Penticton; or just go for a swim at Manitou Beach in Naramata, or the many beaches of Penticton. Cycling and hiking are also very popular with an extensive trail system to explore throughout the Okanagan from the KVR to the tressels. Take in a round of golf at one of the beautiful Okanagan courses from Penticton to Oliver, or Kelowna.

The origins of the Penticton Golf & Country Club go back to a 9 hole course that shared a fairway with a racetrack, located in the area of the Memorial Arena. This course was entirely built by enthusiastic volunteers and maintained by the players.
Over the years the club grew and changed locations several times, continuing to improve with each move. In 1961 the Penticton Golf & Country Club opened the first 18 hole golf course in the British Columbia Interior. In 1965 the present site became available and the course became championship-sized for the first time.
