The city of Kelowna, located in British Columbia's southern interior, is home to the Okanagan Golf Club and its two 18-hole championship courses - the Bear and the Quail. A temperate climate and loads of sunshine keep visitors coming back to Kelowna. With ski resorts and lakeside beaches all just minutes away, you'll never run of things to do. After a day on the links, consider a tour of some of the many world class local wineries that have become a major attraction in the Okanagan Valley.

In Kelowna
