Lake Country is home to kilometres of beaches and lakes, including the stunning Okanagan Lake--the largest of the lakes in the Okanagan. Stretching more than 135 kilometres, Okanagan Lake defines much of the Okanagan Valley: Vernon is situated at its north end, Lake Country and Kelowna at its centre and Penticton to the south.
