Okanagan Falls is located on the southern tip of Skaha Lake, and is named after the little falls that were situated at the end of the lake where it flows into the Okanagan River. The valley is actually an extension of the Columbia Basin and is the only temperate desert in Canada. Skaha Lake is one of the warmest lakes in Canada and is edged with beautiful sandy beaches and parks within walking distance of the commercial area. The community boasts one of the mildest climates in Canada which allows residents and visitors to enjoy the many recreation facilities available. From beaches to bluffs, whether you are cycling along old Kettle Valley Railroad which runs along the west side of the lake, or enjoying world-class rock climbing at Skaha Bluffs and surrounding areas, Okanagan Falls has something for everyone.
