WHILE ON YOUR CRUISETOUR

The Okanagan Valley’s claim to fame is in the incredible wines produced by the local wineries located on its outskirts. Don’t leave Kelowna without visiting one of the many vineyards here. Try Ex Nihilo Vineyards’ signature ice wine or go green with organic wines from Summerhill Pyramid Winery.

OTHER FUN THINGS TO DO

• Hit the links at the Harvest Golf Club, a one-of-a-kind course where you can pick apples, peaches and pears while you play from mid-March to mid-November.
• Lush grass and beautiful beach views are sure to make a picnic at Bertram Park memorable.
• If you spend the day by the lake, be sure to keep your eyes peeled for Ogopogo—the legendary monster that is said to inhabit Lake Okanagan!

SPORTING ADVENTURES

Okanagan Lake is a haven for tame and wild watersports alike. Stop by a rental stand and try your hand at windsurfing and sailing. Or rent a kayak and paddle out as far as you dare.

LOCAL CURRENCY

In Canada, the Canadian dollar (CAD) is the official currency. Credit cards are widely accepted and often offer a good exchange rate. In all of Canada, a 5% Goods & Services Tax (GST) must be paid on all transportation, accommodation, restaurant meals, and just about anything else you purchase, right down to a pack of gum. The province of British Columbia also charges a 7% Provincial Sales Tax (PST) on goods.
