Osoyoos, along with the rest of the Okanagan Valley, is a popular summer time vacation destination. Osoyoos itself almost doubles in size during the summer, turning this small town into a small city. But Osoyoos is more than a friendly town and a beautiful lake. We have a terrific selection of attractions and events to suite any holiday vacationer! It's a wonderful recreational destination with miles of shallow, sandy beaches (there are four public beaches). The lake is quite deep in the centre - a delight for avid fishermen. Five varieties of fish can be caught including Large Mouth Bass, Trout, Kokanee, Perch and White Fish. There are three boat launches and several marinas for renting boats, skidoos, or paddle boats.

Spotted lake or Klikuk (its native name, meaning the spotted lake).

For the casual outdoor enthusiast, Osoyoos has many walkways along the beach, beside orchards, on side streets, or for a pleasant stroll downtown. Bike and motor-scooters are available for rent and many visitors spend the entire day riding along the lake. With any outdoor activity you must first decide on the myriad gorgeous views - fruit trees, the lake, pine trees and the steep mountains that envelope the valley. What would a visit to Osoyoos be without some of the local produce? Osoyoos produces the earliest fruit crops in Canada - from cherries to wild asparagus you can get it here first. Planning a trip around the fruit season? The fruit trees bloom in April, with the first crop of cherries in late June, followed by apricots, peaches, pears, apples and finally grapes in late September.
