Beautiful beach, warm shallow water, boat quiet, but can get very busy during the hot summer days. Ensure you get here early for parking in the very small lot, and to grab the best beach spots.
South Beach Drive Penticton BC V2A 3W3 Canada
Better sandy beach than Okanagan Lake side of Penticton. Big grassy park with tennis courts too. Don't forget to try the superb raspberry cheesecake ice cream at Gilligan's stand! $3 for a big scoop.
Ice cream cones at the concession are way bigger than the pre packaged ice cream bars they sell, and only cost $2! Mint chocolate chip FTW.
Tow trucks do patrol continuously, so do NOT park illegally, and stay within' the lines , Parking Enforcement is not generous.
The red sand beach is perfect for exfoliating your feet! :)
So peaceful at this time of year
The concession does have interact, and the burgers aren't bad, but you are going to pay $6.00 Cdn. for a basic burger loaded (cheese , lettuce, tomato )
Beautiful sandy beach
grab your kayak and go for a paddle!
Sand is super nice and the Water is clear. Just get in!!! If it’s summer... - Joel
Some of the wettest water to be found anywhere. - Bradley Cooper
Rattlesnake Island from this point in Penticton will only take about 7 hours to paddle via kayak each way. I have done that paddle trip many times. - GuyThaLizard KAYAKokanagan
