Kickininee Provincial Park

Dark Side of the Okanagan - Northern Lights & Stars

Most travel to the Okanagan Valley for the hot summer days, secluded but accessible beaches, quality wine, bike trails and breathtaking sunsets that seemingly provide the perfect end to a perfect day...
But most remain unaware that our remote, desert climate has some of the darkest skies in the area, providing spectacular views of the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis), Milky Way Galaxy, Shooting Stars and other cosmic events, only seen by the patient, persistent and lucky few who are willing to venture out into the night.

Fintry Queen Sailing Okanagan Lake

The M.V. Fintry Queen is an historic ship and landmark tourist attraction in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, Canada. Originally built in 1948 as a vehicle ferry, she was converted to carry passengers in 1968 and has since averaged 25-30,000 passengers annually from mid May to mid October.

The Fintry Queen has a complete commercial galley, two service bars, dance floor and outdoor barbecue able to serve 325 passengers. Planning is underway with the City of Penticton to create a new landing and moorage facility at the foot of Main Street for Summer 2016. This video footage was filmed in 1999... were you there ?
