Penticton, a place to stay forever
With roughly 40,000 residents, Penticton is the hub of the south Okanagan. Beautiful beaches, vineyards basking in the sun, and ample recreation opportunities make this city especially true to its name, which in the native Salish tongue means 'a place to stay forever'.
