#5 off-the-beaten-path destination

British Columbia

You’re going to love Kelowna

Located on the eastern shore of Okanagan Lake, surrounded by parks, pine forest, mountains, orchards and vineyards, Kelowna is a quintessential summer getaway. If sun and sand are on your to-do list this summer, Kelowna has 30 beaches to choose from.

Hacker tip

While Hot Sands Beach, Boyce-Gyro Beach and Rotary Beach are popular options, if you want a more under-the-radar vibe, head for the beach at Bertram Creek Regional Park.
