Discover Okanagan Falls: The Hidden Jewel of Wine Country

Tucked away between Penticton and Oliver, Okanagan Falls is the kind of place where life feels a little sweeter, a little slower, and a whole lot tastier. This charming district invites you to hit pause, take a deep breath, and dive into a world of rolling vineyards, stunning lake views, and culinary delights that will have you savoring every moment.

Whether you’re a wine enthusiast chasing the next great vintage, a foodie hunting down unforgettable bites, or simply someone craving a serene escape, Okanagan Falls delivers a perfect blend of local charm, natural beauty, and laid-back luxury.

With a cozy population of around 2,500, Okanagan Falls carries a rich history behind its name. Once named for the small waterfalls at the end of Skaha Lake feeding into the Okanagan River, these falls have long since been submerged to help control flooding and maintain lake levels. Yet, the spirit of those falls’ lives on—flowing through the lush vineyards, crystal-clear waters, and the welcoming community that makes this hidden gem shine.
