Beautifully maintained!! Incredible views..picnic area is excellent! Great family day spot for sure!
Such a nice relaxed atmosphere:) definitely will have to return!
Skaha Lake is by far the best lake in Penticton! There's tons of space if you want to be on the sand or up on the grass. A great place for the entire family! There are basketball courts to choose from and a concession if you get snacky!
There is much to do in the summer. Ice cream, lunch, beach and playgrounds. There's even a 1k walking path right down the middle. Lots of parking and fun all day!!
Seems quite nice. Children's playground suitable for 5 -12 nearby. Icecream and slushie available for purchase. Nice picnic area and beach. Limited parking I think for summer months.
Something for everyone. A playground next to a water splash pad. Paved walking, running and cycling paths. Basketball hoops, street hockey court, work out equipment, concession stands and more. Not to mention the sandy beach, great for swimming, paddle board and boat rentals available. Another great natural playground for kids and adults near the tennis courts and main concession. Check it all out!
Great for families to enjoy some beach time with all the amenities.
Best lake in the area. Always a nice breeze blowing in the summer. Sand is of good quality on the beach and there are plenty of trees to lend shade and snooze under on a hot summer day. Not the cleanest of change rooms and snack shop doesn't have very much in the way of healthy items. Tennis courts, basketball courts, outdoor theatre, body weight exercise machines and children's playground all make it a great place to relax away the day. Great place
My family and I loved this beautiful place, nice hotels, the view and calm you get sitting on the benches front of the super nice park is amazing.. the beach is so clean golden color sand with no rocks in it, makes a very pleasant walk. Can't wait to go back. ❤ it!!
I love to walk there just to gase upon the water. It's kinda like my happy place
Best beach ⛱ better than the Okanagan Lake!
New sifted sand, washdoom break and basketball hoops. Spent an hour in middle of our bike ride from one side of town to other and back to hotel.
Best beach in okanagan . Lots of amenities with clean washroom change rooms. Ice cream and hot food kiosks. Beautiful beaches and views. Always busy with lots of eye candy!
Best beach in Penticton for families. The sand was nice and relatively smooth, there was enough space (during the week) so that it didnt feel too crowded. There are nice park benches, playgrounds and delicious ice cream shops.
Lots of space to do your own thing. Walking with your dog or alone with others or maybe sitting and people watching . You can also play tennis or take your kids to the splash park Whatever you choose its a beautiful place,winter or summer.
Absolutely stunning park, with a well cared for board walk. Lots of wild life is visible and there is a beautiful lookout point.
My favourite beach in the Okanagan
Such a beautiful area! There’s tons to walk around and see, get nice and close up to the lake and even boat rentals! If there is an event going on around or at the park, parking can be hard to find and you pretty much rely on street parking.
This park is beautiful with something for everyone. There is a sandy beach, fresh water lake, work out area, kids water park, baseball diamonds, a basketball court and beach volleyball. There are many picnic tables, shady spots under the trees and a beautiful gazebo (?) built by local Rotarians.
Love this beach. Cleaned and groomed daily. Family oriented. Washrooms, change rooms and a snack shack. Playground nearby.
Skaha lake is warm water The winds are great for kiting and windsurfing and a dog beach
This is so beautiful here. I especially love it on a windy day when I can watch the para sailing, and the crazy waves. Don't miss a visit to this beach if you are in Penticton.
Picturesque lake, sandy beach, water park, playground, grassy feilds and lots of benches. Highly recommended for families. Clearly marked swimming areas with floating docks for jumping off of. Lots of boats and seado's on the water.
Gorgeous, grassy areas to picnic. Sandy beaches to work on that tan. And a beautiful lake to cool off from the summer heat.
Awesome Beach for the whole family. Soft sand and warm waves. They even have a dock out on the water! Rent kayaks, play water sports. When you're done, stop for some delicious ice cream.
Skaha lake park is a perfect spot to hang out with family during the day and have a fire at the beach with friends at night
Gorgeous beach and nice water! There is even a very reasonably priced concession that has huge ice cream servings too!
Great place to go for a walk, take the kids to play, or walk the dog. There are beaches here so you can go swimming in the summer.
A fun place to visit on holidays
What a hot/breezy place to relax. There's a coffee shop, ice cream store and a concession stand nearby. The water is warm, it's blazing on beach but with lots of park space in the shade, and nice and sandy.
Beautiful, large beach with nice sand, Tickleberries ice cream, a concession, a nice shaded area, tennis courts and a playground at one end. An outdoor bar at the other end, and a campground just past that.
Excellent beach front, with a great playground. Public facilities were very well kept. Spent two days here and it was great. We enjoyed it more on this side.
Great park! well maintained lots of green space and tables with a cool lookinh playground
Kinda sad it's not as big as it was when I was a kid. But still a fantastic beach for swimming
Beautiful beach with a lovely playground around and walk path
Fantastic beach, fun to relax and now allowed drinks in the summer
A great place to stop and enjoy the lake, beach and an ice cream cone from Tickleberries stand.
The lake and park are great but the lack of service at the concession stand a Skaha is utterly terrible. Go every year and last yr was the same. Line ups and 30 minutes to place an order
Great Park , sand beach ????️
Great beach with several kids parks. During the summer there is food and snow cones for sale.
Perfect little beach!
Nice warm.water feels like you are in your bath tub..The sand feels good between your doors..There is an icecream shop in front the beach great flavors.
It's a really good walking park u have the lake on one side and park on the other s8de
One of my favorite local beaches. Nice sand, not too busy even tho it is boatlaunch.
This beach is clean and spacious. The water is great for a dip on a hot day! The rental station is great if you forgot something like an umbrella, or if you want to try something like paddle boarding.
Has a great atmosphere and plenty of space for anything you have in mind. Dog friendly in most areas, Basketball and Volleyball courts Available and lots of grass areas for Soccer or Football. Also has lots of clean beach area for swimming or lounging.
Hands down the best park and beach in Penticton.
One of the nicest beaches, biggest park and hands down the most plush sand. Love Skaha Lake Park. Plus there is lots of free parking.
Nice facilities and a beautiful park. Good place to fill up water if you're camping ????
Beautiful sandy beach, grassy area, playground, volleyball court. Stupid city council keeps trying to carve off pieces and turn over to private parties for things like big water parks and concession stands. It would be insane to ruin such a jewel like that.
Great place for a beach day
Good beach day last weekend but there was way too many people. Made it hard to social distance. The water was nice and warm but the journey from the grass to the sand was super warm
Hot summer but cool wave river beach. Skaha is good summer place.
The beach in south Penticton is amazing!! Beautiful white sand (not Rocky at all like most bc lakes) water was the perfect temp for a cool off in mid August. Very similar feel to Lake Huron for all the Ontarians out there.
Very nice beach, splash pads for the kids, lots of playgrounds nearby. Water was warm and shallow enough for the kids to wade out fairly far. For a Saturday, there was a lot of room.
One the nicest lake beaches ever. Very clean and very few commercial places. Launch your paddle board or kayak anywhere in the area. Swimmers have a bouyed safety zone. Lots or parking in lots at both ends. Very family oriented.
Nice beach to walk along and they even have a workout area but I forgot to take a photo of it.
Amazingly warm water and clean beach!
Awesome Beach thers also alot to do during the first week of August such as Peach festival and the air show beautiful clean water .
Well maintained beach for the weekend. You are lost in the beach that you will not know the clock running fast beyond the time you want to spend. Worth spending the day along with the family.
This is a great park for hanging out! Beach is clean, and lots of picnic spots, playground equipment, beach volleyball, and a boat launch!
This is my 2 youngest children's fav place. We usually stay here for a couple hours at a time. They absolutely love the park.
Very good park. Large swimming area, lots of picnic tables, playground, water park, couple of cafés.
Best public grass ever! Green, very dense, crispy, clean, well maintained
Amazing Park, easy parking, sandy beach.
Skaha lake park is beautiful and there is excellent ice cream too #tickleberrys
Adequate parking, clean well groomed park, picnic area available, nice and cool in the shade????????????????????????????????????????
The best beach in CANADA. Hot sand. Hot water. Walking distance to the best family oriented Motel (Beachside) in the west. Docks for children, slides, and ice cream everywhere!!
Its a beach and water.... That is all !! Who doesn't like a park and a beach
Very quiet during the week. Very little tourist attractions
Great beach, lots of sand and grassy area too. Shade on the beach and in the grassy park. Parking available too.
During the week and during the day it is much less busy than on the weekends. Bring sunscreen in the summer. You can get carried away with trying to tan.
Perfect place for a Picnic, workout, family time
Great park , no scummies , they are all over on the other side
Nice large beach, warm water, close food and washrooms. Nice park
A beautiful lake and a well kept park. It's often very busy and can be hard to find a spot to park and set up on the beach but it's worth it. There is well highlighted drop offs and lots of shallow spots for children. The ducks are very humanized and will walk right up to you if you have food.
Beautiful clean beach.. always a relaxing time
Great Beach, tons of space both on the beachfront as well as in the grassy area with trees for shade. Clean and well maintained. Has washrooms, concessions, and paddle board rentals available.
Always a great time on the beach and in the park.
Great place for families with small children to have fun in a safe environment it's a hidden okanagan jewel
Clean lake, not rocky.
My son loves it here. Didn't want to leave when we left.
Beautiful! Many people enjoying the park. Sand clean. Fire pits on beach. Tree's in middle of beach ! Long walkway. All types of activities going on. Concession stand.
OK, this is a no-brainer. It's a public park alongside an unbelievably beautiful lake. Nothing more need be said. Enough facilities to keep a person or family occupied when the weather is good, and even when the weather is bad, a walk in the park is always welcome. Get out there and enjoy this place
Beautiful. Shallow to quite a good distance. Tons of sand fleas if you sit next to the water.
Amazingly green and juicy grass in the middle of hot scorching summer. This is a true miracle or real hard work of park management and staff. Best park in the Okanagan area ????
It's the mountains!! What else can you say ? It's beautiful! Oooh! Lots of vineyard's!!! Skaha vineyard my favorite!!
Love this park, I just can't help think it just needs something more. Good activity and recreation area. Some real sketchy people around after 10pm. Worth hanging out on a nice sunny day. Good for Pokémon Go.
Definitely one of the best sand beaches in the country. Warm water, south-facing, and very clean. You have to love Penticton.
Big playground with a variety of structures for different age groups. Also has a spray park that kids can activate on a switch. There are also paved paths surrounding the entire playground that are ideal for any new bike riders to practice their skills. The only downside is the concession nearby has an extremely limited selection. The ice cream is nice but if you’re planning to spend a good part of the day here make sure to pack a lunch.
Great beach, lots of stuff to do with ice cream/hot dog stands. Can even rent boats and tubes nearby for extra excitement and water fun.
Great sand warm water. But really hard to find parking. Extremely busy!!
Coming from Ontario where most of the beaches upkeep consists of them putting up signs that the water is too polluted to swim in... It's nice to see a place that cares, cleans up its beaches and water and ultimately does something for the environment!
Great beach but sharp drop off.
Lots of beach and green space. Shade or Sun, your choice.
Beautiful beach area you can spend all day enjoying.
A very quite and beautiful lake. Water is fresh and clean. View is also stunning.
Nice shade, close to beach and playground
Nice sandy beach. Clean and grouved sand. Grass fields are also available. Toilet and food stands are near by.
So much to offer! Basketball courts, spray park, beautiful well kept beach, nice, clean water.
Love the trees beach and walk way. Great place to take photos and relax. Pet friendly and appreciation to those dog owners that keep the grass cleaned up.
Nice beach and area to make a fire or picnic
Nice beach, parking is not bad early or later in the evening.
I appreciate that the park is maintained well. except the bathroom hours do not follow the scheduled operating hours posted on the door. So rest room access is somewhat unpredictable. That landscaping is nice.
Lovely little spot with nice people on the beach
This is a great beach area. Good sand, lots of activities for kids and adults such as little slides in the water, tennis courts and beach volleyball areas. Also good walking and biking surfaces. It is a very long beach which helps it seem not crowded aven though it is quite popular.
Perfect place to live.. raise kids and retire..
Great place to relax and hang out. Love Skaha!!
I have had memories there that are unforgettable.
Long sandy beach with grass picnic areas, lots of volleyball courts, basketball courts, splash park, playground,and a nice sea(lake wall) to walk,only lost a star because the only concessions they have are ice creams.
Beautiful beach with Crystal clear water. Lots of space for people. Too bad there is no dog section.
Great place lots of space between each sites and the sites are huge. The view is spectacular. Will come back again and again.
This is one of the nicest parks in Penticton it's a great place for a picnic. There is work out equipment there as well as basketball hoops. The children's playground is awesome. Nice place to walk your "leashed" four legged friends.
Something for everyone. Large beach, adventure playground for older kids, playground for younger children, a water park and several concessions. Lots of parking onsite and nearby.
Not sure if it's because of covid but the beach was amazing! Not a lot of people, clean and a good place.
That's my hometown penticton bc skaha lake on southend okanagan lake northend summertime great may to oct. Upto 40 degrees celsius beautiful country mountains on either side of town
Large park, tables, benches or the beach. Marina and kids playground. Something for everyone
Lay on the beach, sit on a bench, ride your bike, play volleyball, get icecream, and more. This is a great beach and park. It has large grass areas with picnic tables and a large walk way along the beach to walk, run, or ride. Park benches are ideal for people watching or reminiscing with friends.
Nice food,good place!
great place for getting relax and swim clean great view a lot of place ..... a lot of campground around recommend to every one
This is a beautiful beach red sand as well as a grassy area. Lots of picnic tables, a couple of concessions and places to rent boats, SUPS and kayaks. A couple of vendors there as well as pub at the far end. Family friendly with washrooms and change rooms. A great place to enjoy beautiful Okangan lake!
Nice park with sandy beach on lake Skaha. There swimming area is well indicated. Although I did not see any lifeguards on duty (I might be wrong about this). There is also a large grass area for a picnic. No BBQ areas though, not sure if this was intentional.
Beautiful Park very well maintained. Great sand and water access for young children and good facilities all round. Penticton has done a superb job in building the parks and waterfronts and cl Has parking close to the beach. The beach was full but there was still larking to be had. The only negative I found, there is no inside or outside foot shower to wash sand off feet.
Maria is a wonderful host. The site is adequate. We've been coming here for years and were disappointed to learn that they are selling after 35 years and townhouses will be replacing what was a long running traditional camp spot for us and many other families.
This park is so very nice the Beach was perfect. Also went to get Ice cream and one scoop is big. They workers were nice. And there is a Henna Hut that did a great job.
Always a lovely time at Skaha beach.There's two parks to play in, large open grassy areas, the splash pad, board walk, two ice cream shops, two sets of public bathrooms/change rooms a couple open year round, picnic benches, benches, Pavillion, sundial, lake front sandy beach, docks, fire pits, basketball court, boat marina, beach volleyball courts, outdoor exercise equipment, baseball field and diamonds, gated hockey/lacrosse court, gated tennis court. Free parking which isn't terrible to find a spot. The park is big enough that you can find a private space for your group, but still be close to everything. The park is also smoke free.
Beauty Beach... Skaha lake is gorgeous, warm too - relatively speaking.
Beautiful quiet beach with playground and waterpark.
We all loved it clean beach, clean water, clean facilities all around amazing we had a great time.
Skaha Lake a Canadian Riviera. Beautiful sandy beaches, great ice cream and best of all children building sand castles. Beyond our NORMAL way of life! I see skies of blue red roses too I see them bloom for me and you and I say to myself what a wonderful world class Penticton playground.
Beautiful park. Large clean beach. Lots to do for anyone.
Three playgrounds for the price of one! Very advanced structures for older children.
Exquisite place. I was feeling like I am in Hawaii. There is a kid park too with lots of green grass. Tennis Court and washroom facility is there. LOVE IT!
Great beach park, tends to get really crowded. Water is warm.
Best place to spend your evenings☺️
Best beach in the Okanagan. Great for swimming and amazing ice cream!
Even though this beach park tends to get busy on the nice, hot summer days, it is still a great place to swim and tan in Penticton.
Amazing beach for good family time.
This is a favorite place to walk along the lakeshore. The views change hourly and the wildlife is interesting at times. Best beach to be at if the wing is from the north. The trails are all easy and you can walk a short loop or even a 3km loop. Kids love the waterpark and play equipment.
Beautiful grassy park and huge Sandy beach. South facing so you get the sun. Ice cream stand right on the beach.
Haven't been to a nicer beach since San Diego! The beach is immaculate - all sand and no rocks! The water was a little on the cool side consider it is the Okanagan but it is crystal clear! Amazing beach!
Nice place to spend time with family
Kids an I love coming to this beach. Its clean and spacious. Grass or sand. Only thing I would say is watch out for broken glass in the sand
Awesome beach....When it's not busy. The city dumped a bunch of money into making it look great and it's well worth it.
A familial sandy beach where you can rent paddle board (30$ for an hour) and kayak. Very well maintained.
Very nice park, and the beach was impeccable! It looked like someone raked it before anyone got there. The slide that went into the water was definitely a bonus, and the park attached was cute and different from other playgrounds I have seen. ????
Amazing people, nice water no seaweed or rocks. Warm even later in the night and evening.
It's another beautiful day here at Skaha Lake Park.
Usually a few degrees warmer than okanagan lake, the water is always clean, the sand is always clean and warm and the sun shines like your the only person in the world.kilometers of beach.rich orange- ish sand, clear blue water
Loved our time here. Dinner hour. Sat on bench next to Lake Bike path and walkway. People watched. Plenty of dogs and their owners. Every friendly. Relaxing g stroll song the walking path.
Always love it here. Nice sand. Clean. Maintained.
nice place, although I'm currently incredibly disappointed in all of the people very much not listening to social distancing guidelines. the pandemic isn't over! stay home, and if you don't, wear a mask and stay 6 feet apart from people who you aren't family/close friends!
Absolutely amazing park and lake. Loved it. This side is much better then the Okanogan lake. Do not feed the ducks or they will never leave you alone! Haha
Been coming here since I was a little kid. Doesn't change much which is nice. If you like Sun, sand and water this is the place. Hands down better than the Okanogan side.
Beautiful park, trees ard gorgeous and people are friendly....good place to walk your dog (on leash only)
This is my favorite beach to bring the kids to. It has great play space, nice sandy beaches and the water fets gradually deeper in a way that makes it really family friendly.
Beautiful public access to lake skaha
Very best and nice park to have a day at the beach with family or friends. Lots of parking and there's a concession stand. There's also a spray park for the kids as well.
Wide open park and a great sandy beach. Beautiful spot to take the family or have a picnic :)
In summer the miles of beautiful beaches are full end to end.warm soft sandy beaches with water sports for owners and renters alike. Beach kiosk for lunch and endless green grass park with sidewalk.no dogs on beach
Awesome beach to relax at, big dog beach as well. Playgrounds and paddleboard rentals available
Close to beach. Dog friendly. Only on leash dogs allowed
Nothing much to do. Clean area. Public washroom facility. Ample car parking space. Swings for children.
Beautiful place to visit, took my daughter here she played in the park then we played at the beach for a little while! Awesome experience great place for memories to be made :-)
Great park for families of all ages. We enjoyed the day there, swam in the lake and played in the sand and water park. My son had a fabulous time! We will be back soon.
A must see for tourists. At Okanagan lake in Penticton you can float down the Channel in a safe flotation device and arrive on Skaha beach. You can just drive to the park as well.
It's beautiful, clean, peaceful and the concession offers all sorts of treats to cool you down. Volleyball and tennis courts are great too
Gorgeous park, not too busy. Beautiful views and playgrounds, as well as tennis courts, voleyball, basketball court, plenty of parking, etc.
Beautiful beach and lake to.enjoy in a hot summer day. Always enjoy coming here.
An enjoyable park to sit and read or write under a tree. Maybe have a lunch and go for a swim. Amazing Sushi around the corner at Kojo.
Micheal who works for barefoot camp grounds keeps this hole beach clean spotless 7am 8am hes out there . A guy like this who goes above and beyond and genually loves his job. We rent the beach house every year for canada day. Its lit . Im gonna rent a yurt next year and go with 4 or 5 people not the hole group of 11
Scenic. Great place for Family Fun. Walking trails with excellent beach and swimming. Come watch the Bald Eagles perch in the trees at the Marina and swoop down to catch some Bass or Trout!
Best place for a swim and a cold one
Great tree shaded areas close to the lake, with a concession stand, play ground, tables and benches andyou can bring your dog.
Great place for family, nice and open area for family walks. Has a ice cream place in summer and playground for kids. Nice clean beach and lot of benches to sit and enjoy the view .
Beautiful place to visit with friends and family. Awesome beach.
It was a great day for a walk with a little breeze off the lake but very invigorating. Called in at the Nauti Dog cafe and enjoyed the experience. It's a great cafe,something that has been needed for a long time
Beautiful lake and surroundings. So much to do. Beautiful beach. Highly recommend.
You can spend a good family time here. Kids will love the park and the water activity. I like the slide go to the water directly. There is an excellent view of the mountain.Very well maintained park. The beach was clean without any smell. Nearby restaurants and eating places.Penticton is really beautiful city in Okanagan valley
Beautiful lake to go to. The parking situation there is very confusing and I wouldn't believe tourists have an easy time maneuvering in this mess. Either way once you find parking you are good to go. The public bathrooms are clean.
This area has plenty of parking space but try to arrive early, pretty popular place in the summer, make sure to bring cash if you are planning to rent paddle boards and floaters.
Beautiful beach and great lake for swimming and watersports. Great spot on Skaha Lake, plenty to do from boat and SUP rentals to swimming, basketball and tennis courts. Plenty of parking and grassy areas with picnic tables for spending the day with family and friends. Make sure you bring some cash because the concessions aren't cheap.
Beaches are clean and view is spectacular. Btw they have icecream and a dog beach
Beautiful beach, with many picnic tables, shaded area and vast beach to relax and enjoy a relaxing day at beach.
Nice beach with beautiful sand to enjoy laying around. Water is so nice in this lake. There is a huge volleyball area which looks like it can hold a pretty good tournament if needed. Vendors on the walkway along with a concession if you need to grab something. Just a really nice park and beach to go to.
Great park with a nice beach.
Beautiful park, they've done a wonderful job with the lakefront here. Has a little bit of everything!
Great beach to relax and swim at with lots of room for people and different commodities nearby for food and such.
Liked the beach, water was nice and warm.
Beaches are garbage free, bathrooms are in good condition. Has volleyball nets setup. Parking can be a bit tricky as it is a busy beach. 2 ice cream shops on either side of the beach!
Beautiful place to relax and enjoy a stunning view
Its a very clean beach. Beautiful lake, but I don't like the sand at this beach its very hard on your feet.
Fun weekend, great little shops, and good ice cream from Tuckleberries...
It's a beautiful lake for swimming and water activities. Good for paddle boarding when water is calm.
It is a beautiful large park with ample parking, a wide promenade to walk and cycle, next to a lovely sandy beach for relaxing, sunbathing and swimming in Skaha Lake, and with large lawn areas and gorgeous trees for shade and fresh air, an exercise area and a concession. There is an area for using boats close by. I really enjoy this park every time a spend time there at any season
Large beach, in front of a nice park with plenty of shade, with boardwalk in between. Unlike the main beach at Penticton, the parking is set back, which is nice too. Beautiful sundial sculpture. Will come again!
This park has a big beautiful sandy Beach with good facilities and green grass with picnic benches and trees for shade. The sand goes right into the water, no gravel, and the drop off to deeper water was clearly marked.
A beautiful & relaxing campsite rv parks or an overnight stop. All about nature with a few hummingbirds around ❤kids love the pools!
A real hidden gem - clean sandy beach, warm shallow water and plenty of amenities, washrooms, concession, volleyball nets, tennis courts, kids playground. Scenic views of the lake and mountains, a great place to spend those hot sunny days.
Nice sandy beach with grass park to have picnic and fun kids park.
This is the place to go in the summer in Penticton . You can take your kids to the water park or the play ground . You can enjoy the beach or the grass. They have volley ball nets setup and tennis courts .And nice shade under on of the many trees.
One of the best beaches in the Okanagan. Nice light colored sand (not quite white but as close as you will get in Canada), there is a concession stand called Tickleberries, and there is the best ice cream there too. Nice park area with benches, a marina with rentals and a new restaurant with a patio on the water that should be open by now. Definitely one of my favorite places to spend time in the sunshine in Penticton.
Beautiful and relaxing with stunning view of Skaha lake and the mountains. Family friendly, kids love the playground and water park.
Clean sand and beautiful lake. Good place to take your kids!
Beautiful park and lake. Awesome for swimming, relax.
Clean beach with soft fine sand and warm lake water. Come early as the beavh fills up fast
Very scenic and relaxed vibes. Nice boardwalk to take a stroll alongside.
Great beach. Lots of parking, not too terribly busy. Water is shallow enough to walk out a good 50 feet and still be chest deep.
This place could be so much more....think boardwalk arcade .....nice restaurants with rooftop patios...carnival foods - souvenir shops.....Tickleberry's is all this city can approve?
The dinosaur park has lots of climbing features for active kids. The swim area had a perfect grade for wading out and swimming.
Great place to take the family. Lots of well maintained beach, a large playground and a water park.
Amazing lake. Beach is fantastic. Bring an umbrella and park yourself next to the water for easy and quick cooling off! ;)
The water is so clear and the sand feels great, there are no rocks in this part of the lake. Amazing place! Bring an umbrella for sure if its hot.
Wonderful beach! Incredibly clean beach, nice and shallow for the little ones, volleyball, tennis, dry park with slides, swings and musical instruments...something for everyone!
Beautiful beach and not to crowded, especially on a weekday. It would be 5 star of there were a few more services (meals, refreshments etc.) near by, but they are somewhat limited and close early, even on holidays.
It's beautiful and the doggies love it!
We bought some take out and came here to have a quick bite at the picnic table. It was a beautiful sunny day with a light breeze. Only issue was no visible garbage cans where we were sitting.
I love the location of this park. It's close to beautiful Skaha Park and Beach, at the quiet end of Penticton. Close to swimming, a kiddy park, marina, snack food and drinks. Also a grassy area with picnic tables. The hostess is excellent, the park and the bathrooms are clean. Sites are a little tight.
This is a great beach with lots of soft sand and some trees for shade. There is a playground and a water pack as well as a number of basketball hoops and a outdoor arena. Public washrooms were clean and located in a good spot.
Very nice place
Absolutely our favorite Park and beach area! It's clean, and there's a lot of space so you don't have to feel crowded.
Great large beach with nice sand and free parking.
A long green space in Penticton with volleyball, play grounds, tree cover and a nice beach. The city is currently trying to lease some of the green space to a water slide which is not going over well with the residence.
One of the nicest beaches in the OK. Hoping the bathrooms are open by now lots of seniors doing the pee pee dance on the lawn????
Beautiful viwes and nice refreshing water of the lake. Would be nice to have more parking. Nice ice cream shop and even tennis courts available near by the lake.
Beautiful park. Lots of walking paths. Picnic areas and direct access to the beach.
Nice park. Beautiful beach, clean washrooms. Make sure your dog is on a leash as there is enforcement.
Great place for family... lots of shade and lots of water.
The best sand for all the okanagan area! Clean beach and clean water, also quite warm to enjoy swimming ????
It's ok. Gotten a bit dumpy over the years.
Beautiful views and clean!
Expansive well kept lawns with many mature pine shade trees. Great walkway along the lake beach.
Beautiful park and beach! Great to spend the day with family.
Very nice sandy beach
Beautiful warm spot for a swim with lots of space. clearly marked swimming area and a shallow few meters great for kids
Relaxed playground, well keept. Challenges for various age groups. Good beach for kids
Nice mix of shaded areas and open parks/beaches. Includes a "waterpark", volleyball court, and tickleberries ice cream stand
I love this place, super clean and the water was just perfect. There is a park too where you can have a picnic or bbq. Washrooms are also clean.
Perhaps the best beach I have ever visited. White sand, steady drop off , long sand bar, clean, no dogs,
One of the best beaches and family place is at this very spot... absolutely love it and my family they really really enjoyed it here
Clean and well maintained beaches. Beautiful large treed grassy & picnic areas, tennis courts, kids play areas, washrooms, concessions and plenty of parking!
Lots of people out walking on a beautiful winter day.
So many pokestops. Beautifully kept park. Leash only for dogs, poop bags found throughout park on marked poles. Two concession stands open in summer. Great beach for swimming, but steep drop-off (careful with small children). No beach access for dogs.
Great place, Beach faces the Sun most of the day, not hard to find a table or a shade tree, washrooms. Many ways to access the park, beach.
Skaha Lake Park is one of Canada's best rock climbing destinations. There are over 1000 climbing routes which range from 5.6 to 5.13. The park is well marked with great trails and strategically located washrooms. Even if you aren't a climber there are many trails to explore. Be sure to bring water during the hot summer days.
Great lake for all purposes. I had fun doing paddle board.
People continued to come here safely all throughout COVID...lots of beach, grass and picnic tables for everyone to keep their distance...
Was very windy when I went. So had to cut the stay there.
Was well kept and clean of any litter. The location had a fire pit which came in handy as the evening cooled down. It was a great time had by all with endless bowls of chili , and a cherry fruit desert to die for. A special event that the group will long remember.
Great park! Lots of grassy space!
Gorgeous park, good parking, warm water, well marked swimming areas. Minor downside is the sand - it's extremely dusty.
Great park and great beach. On a hot day it is busy and hard to find a good place to park.
A lovely park right on the beach for all to enjoy. The parking is free and there is tons of space for everyone ie: a ball park, playground, a gazebo, coffee truck, ice cream and so much more. ????
Beautiful beach and lots of fun for the kids
So beautiful, the water is nice and warm. Great beach for young kids.
Everything you could want at a beach is here. Sand, food, waterpark kids park lacross box workout area sailing club boat rentals grass park and more
Beautiful park. Right on the beach! There is a huge spread out play ground with lots of swings and slides and a toy house. Also tight ropes (which is both fun for child AND adult) great place to hangout on a spring/summer day. There are tennis courts available to the public, a large field to spread out on and beach access (with a stunning view, might I add).
Amazing vibe tennis court and a long shore to walk on ????????
Nice p.ace to eat lunch covid style
Lots of parking and good cycling routes. A long clean beach with lawns, bathrooms and food options. There are 2 playgrounds and sports options available with swimming and boating areas.
I loved this place. But it was hard to find a picnic table. But the grass areas was nice for a picnic and will come back again
Bit windy at times but a beautiful beach, would recommend it to anyone looking to wind surf, swim etc.
Went for picnic was nice really enjoyed playing tourist.
Clean and not crowded
Awesome place ! Lots of people lots of parking space too ! Will keep going for sure ???????? there is more sand before you get to the water than there is on Okanagan Beach :) So you have more space for you and your family ????
Wonderful treed park area and great beach, concession stand.
Great place for the kids to burn off some energy. Play centers for a variety of ages and skills. Good job Penticton
Lots of grass and water front. Less rowdy than beaches on the Okanagan side
Beautiful! Alot of green space for the picnic. Theres shade for the seniors as well. I don't think the junkies in Penticton have made their way to this end of town yet because there was no needle sightings like there was at Okanagan Lake Beach.
Beautiful
Very vast area for water fun and family picnic. Quite clean walking track. Liked the availability of drinking water and minor cycle repair.
Bicycle fix station with pump. Great seating and tables. Child's monkey park. I will go monkey around there again.
Wonderful, quiet, clean beach with a snack bar and paddleboard, kayak and flotation rental shop. Some trees provide shade on the excessively hot days during the summer.
Nice beach. Dogs are not allowed in the water.
This is a beautiful Park for families with children and for any age groups to go to and have a wonderful time of playing in the lake or just laying and enjoying the Okanagan sun. There are large areas of grass to lay under the tall trees for shade and lots of room to have picnics and barbecues. All in all it's just a wonderful Park to spend the day in and enjoy.
It was quite for this day but really nice
Bathrooms closed too early. No where to go. So you can only stay till 8pm. No where close to use facilities.
Great area to go and spend the day with family and friends! Trails to bike or walk along the beach. Along with tastiest ice cream you'll ever had at Tickleberries!!!
Excellent lake for swimming. The beach was really good and the sand was nice. They have public washrooms and a nice ice cream and food building.
Great park its really big and right by the beach beautiful green space
Really nice Sandy Beach. We were there just a couple days ago, so it's the off-season. So no bathrooms and no concession opened.
Perfect family area, with great pedestrian walkway, Parks and ideal for walking the dog and the beach is in excellent shape and was cleaned early this year, which has been awesome as the weather has been great early????
Played in the tennis courts in the park.. Beautiful place to play tennis and have a dip in the lake afterwards.
This is a beautiful park for any time of year .And for children to be able to get in and swim.and play .This is the ultimate place to walk your dog ,but please clean up after your pup if he or she has a dropping .There are so many children and people that go there to swim and the ground is a place that bare feet are a must when it's hot for the kids .So be kind and do pick up after your pup .So it's a great place ,people are great and friendly .So check it out you will enjoy the weekend.bye for now
Great lake that was super warm when we were there. The side near the marina has a deep drop, but if you go more towards the middle it is more gradual and safer for little kids.
Beautiful spot. Come visit if you are in Penticton. I like this park better than the Okanagan side. More park more beach. Kid play parks volleyball tennis and basketball.
Always an excellent beach to go to. People were very conscious of the current covid 19 situation and I felt safe while at this park.
This beach is really good, gets less wind, and has an awesome ice cream joint!
Park and beach were well kept. Beautiful place to go for an evening outing!! Or an all day adventure! Lots of activities to keep you entertained!
A great place to take a stroll and enjoy the wildlife like the ducks and local birds. Stay later to watch the sun set over the water.
Great playground for the kids, tickleberrys icecream,and of course a beautiful groomed sandy beach.
Clean clear water, tidy beach, well kept activity areas. All in all, a great place for some family time!
Amazing clean beach, clean public washrooms, ice cream near by, water is clean, and a great family beach.
Great place for family fun. Lots of grass, sand and water fun. Free parking around the park is a plus.
Spent a couple hours here. Beautiful park and the view of the Skaha Lake surrounded by mountains is amazing. It's not a must go attraction, but that being said, it's worth a stop or swing by if you are in the area.
Beautiful park adjacent to skaha lake. Great beach. Lake bottom in swimming area is nice. Drops off quickly outside the swimming area. No lifeguards. A little short of services. Just ice cream stand, a few trinket places. Some street parking. Hard not to like this beach.
My wife and i love this park! We walk our dog here yearround. Several nice beaches, lots of green space for picnics, a small marina, 3 tennis courts, 7 really great sandy beach volleyball courts, and several area for kids. We moved to the south end of Penticton just to be near the park. In my opinion it is the best place in town for a variety of free outdoor activities. As an added bonus you can fish for bass just a few minutes walk from the park! A few large wind storms knocked down a lot of big old trees a few years back but the city did a nice job replacing those with a variety of trees that are maturing nicely.
Beautiful park. Concession is great, lots of amenities and things to do. Bottle filler for your water bottles and air pump for your floaties.
This is one of the most pristine, functional lakefront parks you'll find. It offers a large clean, red sand beach, fire pits seasonal, public washrooms (handicap as well), dog friendly areas and free doogie-doo bags for the convenience of walking your dog and picking up after its duty is done to keep the park clean. A vast area of green space, including picnic tables, volleyball nets, tennis courts and kid's playgrounds. Ample parking, including handicapped spaces, a concession stand during summer months, a very large gazebo for local musicians/bands for music in the park, trees beautify the area as well. It offers a wide, paved boardwalk (with many park benches and streetlighting) that extends from one end of the beach to the other, covering the entire beach front and is used extensively and also allows evening walking. You'll see many ducks, Canada geese and seagulls in this area, so bring along some mixed grains and seeds to feed them. The only reason I gave this park a 4 out of 5 stars is because the concession stand is only open in summer months, so if you plan to spend an afternoon in the park, you'll have to bring your own hydration and food.
Nice park. Great manicured beaches.
Lovely clean park with large grass area leading onto the beach, toilets and small cafe with a wonderful view.
Great park and beach. Cool grass and shade if you want or lay out in the sun on the beach. Good facilities.
Nice beach nice lake to swim in and tickleberries ice cream!!
Such a nice beach. The sand is so soft with very little rocks for sensitive feet like mine. And when u walk out (I'm a non-swimmer) u can go waist deep for like half a block. Then chest deep for another half block til it drops off. Was disappointed to find out that the ice cream place on the beach had no vegan ice cream tho
Big park with great playgrounds and beach areas. We haven't been during the busy season but we enjoyed some fall wading in the lake and watching the ducks.
Very nice place, open, spacious, lots of room for social distancing. Grassy area perfect for a picinic with lovely tables and a close proximity to the beach and water. What a gorgeous place to spend nice family time together. Wonderful Penticton !!!!!
Beautiful sand. The marina is great to rent from. Try the float channel and finish here for some added fun
1st time at this beach and loved it!
Not cold water and nice sand. Good for kids to play. Clean area.
Would be nice if people would quite dumping garbage in the lake
This is my favorite park that has the best of both worlds- TICKLEBERRIES, grass, sand and an awesome CAFE at the marina! Would highly recommend!
Definitely my favorite beach in Penticton. Great sand and less noise.
One of the best beaches in Canada. Perfect in so many ways. Sand is soft. Water is shallow for a long way in. Easy access to food and washrooms. Easy to spend all day here.
The best beach in the Okanogan, the city of Penticton do an awesome job keeping it Beautiful ????
Beautiful park! Lots of grass and trees and a swimable lake, no lifeguards on some parts. Dogs on leash only
Perfect location for people who wants to relax..very clean.
Nice beach, water is great, lots of room, good facilities, water sport rentals, ice cream, grassy areas. Perfect!
Always great, water is warm, sun was hot. The only thing was my keys for my car went missing from one min of resting, to another they were gone. Other than that been there almost every year from Calgary and it's my favorite beach!
Sandy beach, lots of space to social distance. Food, washrooms nearby as well as a spray park, although it was a very hot day & the spray park closed down way too early.
Nicely treed, grass covered park with several picnic tables. Along the Skaha Beach
Such a warm lake to swim in, and definitely great for families. Calm and with a large shallow area.
I didn’t realize Penticton had such a nice beach. It was close to where we were staying. Walking distance in a quiet neighbourhood. Nice place to avoid the large crowds in other areas while having a good time
We are here vacationing every summer. We always have a blast. Nice big beach
We have been going there for 20 years in a row. Grassy area is where we usually leave our stuff though lots of space on the sand as well. Water is very clean, water shallow for kids, tennis courts, volleyball with nets, splash park, basketball court, marina, concession, near by food choices, and ice cream spot place nearby is the cherry on top. Will always be our go to spot. Oh and the channel is near by as well
Awesome location. We had great weather. Can be busy during high season
Great beach with nice sand.
It was so wonderful walking today along the waterfront. February 5 and the weather and sunshine are just beautiful . we stopped at the the Nautie Dog Café to sit outside and have a scone and hot chocolate. Heaven!
My fav holiday place. So relaxing and the water is nice to swim in.
Great place for beach activities, clear, fresh water!
If you could have taken your car to the tent sites. It would have been a way more enjoyable trip. Will not camp there again with a tent.
Skaha lake is simply beautiful. Awesome summer swimming, and the trophy size trout make fishing here incredible.
We love this spot. Great spray park and playground with lots of shade and clean bathrooms.
A beautiful spot to relax or sun tan or swim
Lovely beach front smooth sand really enjoyed my visit!:)
So much to see and do. Beware the junky corner by the chinese gardens and art museum tho.
Beautiful beach, so clean. Nice facilities and ice cream.
Neat and clean lake with many things to enjoy
It is perfect here! Grass and shade or sun and sand! Warm water and beautiful views!
We walked the beach and there was very little going on. Although the weather was nice, most of the shops were closed. This would be a great place to spend a sunny summer day.
Beautiful beach with tennis courts, 2 play grounds, splash park, concessions, washrooms and more. A great place for families to spend a sunny day. Bring a shade umbrella as shade can be hard to come by at this beach
First time there and definitely going to return. Loved everything about the beach, the food, the activities and the atmosphere overall! My family had a great time.
Was enjoyable, cool and refreshing Please keep this park like it is.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE. Very well maintained, the facilities are always clean and the rangers are easy to get along with. To new visitors: please keep your dogs on leash! The park is considering banning dogs altogether if they continue to find people with their pooches off leash, and that would be a shame for everyone. Also, a huge thanks to the skaha park watch society for providing security for the lot and preventing theft.
It's a pretty good place to take the kids to play. It gets really hot in the summer time, though. I wonder if anyone has ever thought about building some water slides nearby, that would be a good idea... ????
it's a beautiful beach that is not too crowded and it's a great place to go with kids.
What an awesome place! There are TWO great playgrounds - one that has been nicely set up with natural components and the other with LOTS of equipment for all young or young-at-heart ages!! The beach stretched forever - one of the cleanest beaches I have ever experienced! LOTS and LOTS of lovely soft sand! Also lots of parking available. It was really a lovely place to spend the afternoon!
Beautiful park well maintained by park staff pleasure to live across the street
The beach is so nice with stunning view
Great place but watch out parking can be tricky.
Cool but nice walk. Lots of ducks. American Squab.
Great beach, with concessions and bathrooms.
Loved it, and so did the kids. You can do so much all in one place. I was impressed. It was awesome. I love the nature feel of it. The natural park, earthy climbing structures, slides, swings. They even had one of those cool baby-adult attached swings. A place for scooters, bikes, huge areas for soccer, tennis courts, the beach, bathrooms, seasonal conssesion. Lot of space and places to picnic on the grass, bench or table. Parking is really close in case you need to make quick trips to the car and back. We will definitely be coming back.
Awesome sandy beach, tall trees and green grass. Just a beautiful place. Highly recommend when in the area.
Well manicured and cared for by the City. There are fire pits on the beach but only a couple of them so good luck, the city has a fire ordinance and only propane fire bowls are allowed. There are lots of ducks that eat the grass but there are also lots of duck droppings. The play park is nice.
Favorite lake to visit when in Penticton. Lots of space to be on the beach. Or if you prefer... hang out on the grass. Beautiful ☀️❤☀️❤☀️❤☀️❤☀️❤☀️
It's the Number 1 park in Canada for a reason! March 3rd and couldn't ask for better weather!!
Nice park with good water access and plenty of grassy areas to hang out. Very close to major roads so lots of road noise.
Fabulous place for a fast walk or a comfortable stroll. Sit on a bench and look out at the lake. Get lost in the view. Or meet a friend and share a thermos of tea or coffee. Whatever you choose wear a smile, it always helps one to feel good and spread happiness.
Loved their Chai latte and dark chocolate raspberry bomb. Always great food and great service even when it's busy
Love this place....awesome for kids... playground / waterpark / lake ..... lots of trees and clean washrooms... best beach in Penticton
An excellent beach in Penticton BC. Crystal clear water nice sand with adequate parking and concessions. Has famous Tickleberry's Ice Cream parlour. You will not be disappointed..
Nice place to take your kids or just hang out and watch volley ball games. Beautiful scenery all around. Highly recommend
We've been going here for the past 3 years. We even got the opportunity to see a doe and a set of twins late one evening as we walked back from the other side of the lake. And the campground we stayed at was fun. Could've done without the kids playing Marco polo though.
Beautiful public park, on Skaha lake plenty of grass area for picnics safe sandy beach playgrounds and waterpark for children. Boathouse and boat launch concession stands plenty of parking at both ends and in middle. Quiet walk during all seasons although quite busy June to September Don't go in winter if South wind blowing.
This is a quiet, clean and beautiful sandy beach, which is wheelchair and stroller friendly. There are paved walkways, trees and shaded grass areas, picnic tables and benches, a concession stand, and public washrooms. The water is clean and perfect for swimming. Comfortable for everyone on a hot, sunny day!
Nice beach, you can be there for hours, super clean and have ice creams stand and other stuffs, you can play basketball, volleyball, tennis and more
This is literally the best swimming lake in Canada I've ever been! Clear water, soft sand and excellent temperature! The best
Beautiful grass area with picnic tables and a gorgeous sandy beach!
Such a long beautiful beach with soft sand, even in the water. Lots of room to space out even with lots of people being there. Picnic tables are available and playgrounds for the kids. And grassy space for games. We love an afternoon there.
Love the trees! Awesome place to sit and relax. Have some lunch and stay awhile. You're invited! ????
Good beach with well groomed sand, clean swimming water
Love coming here
Use to be very pristine. Now docks are littered with bird poo in morning and bandaids and garbage in water. Penticton use to take care of this beach....... now not so much anymore.
The marina boat launch is a gong show, some people know how it works, line up launch boat go park ,depart quickly, have your boat loaded, straps off ,don't diddle around and be unorganized wasting all the other people waitings time. On way out of water go get vehicle and trailer, line up ,back in when its your turn, have your boat driven in by a second person if you can ,get it on trailer pull out, dry off and diddle around away from the ramp area and approach! I witnessed near fistfights between tourists and locals ,hot heads swearing at each other ,as the procedure is not really well posted, common sense prevails amongst those who are courteous . The warf needs to be longer so a boat can hold while the other boat is being pulled out ( like Okanagan Marina) I talked to several people who all felt the same ( unorganized gong show!)
Awesome picnic and my beautiful lady witnessed a little deer walk by us while eating
Wonderful sandy beach, children's waterpark and playground, lots of space for laying out your beach towel, clean water, volleyball nets, restrooms, relaxed atmosphere, perfect location for all ages. In my opinion, a better option than the northern beach.
Lots of trees and grassy areas. Picnic tables are shaded and spread out so you can enjoy yourself without bothering others. The park is right on Skaha beach. There is a concession stand nearby with change rooms and full service washrooms. Plenty of parking as well. There is a promenade that extends the length of the beach. There are play structures for kids as well.
What a lovely family spot. Lots of picnic tables. Bring something to clean or cover the tables though.
Big wide open Beachs. Tickleberrys ice cream is set up on the beach in two locations. Beach is sandy, shallow for quite a ways out into the water
Beautiful clean beach park
Great big open beach with nice sand and clean lake water!
Clean, fun, beautiful sandy beach. Excellent inline skating trail. Bike trails are well groomed with easy access to parking.
Beautiful lake and park.
Playground, splash park, this courts, Marina, concession, great Beach and a good place to launch a boat with lots of parking (but could see it full on a busy day????)
Beautiful green grass, perfect area to social distance, lots of huge trees for shade
Great park. Very nice beach. Great for kids-water park, playgrounds etc. Accessible bathrooms/change rooms. Free WiFi. Volleyball courts, concessions. Lots of wide open grass area and great for picnic/BBQ. Love this park.
Absolutely beautiful, great place to swim,boat,picnic
A beautiful beach. Great shade trees and lovely sandy beach. The lake is warm and clean. A really great family beach.
Nice beach, lots to do. Great place to bring the kids.
Absolutely beautiful!! The city of Penticton takes good care of their parks
Great place, nice beaches. Has boat rentals and ice cream shops. The sand is very dusty though, and you don't want to get stuck on the beach when the wildfires are active as the smoke will be pushed towards you by the winds and have a unhealthy smell.
Great park for a hike but primarily used by climbers. During the summer months there's an "anti car theft" attendant to put your mind at ease. There are outhouse but no other facilities to speak of. BRING LOTS OF WATER!
Great beach, clean water. Fire pits available, lots of activities to do
My go-to spot every time I visit Penticton. This beach has some great trees for shade and sitting under, and even when it's super busy it rarely feels crowded. Love love it!
Was a beautiful warm day today for a walk along the beach..a few dead Salmon on the beach today
