Wine Country Dining Delights

As the Okanagan sun settles towards the valley's western mountain rampart, lighting the sky in a flaming passion of reds, oranges and rose-tinted greys, your mind turns from Penticton's beaches, golf greens or wine touring, to a fine meal, a perfect finish to a perfect day. Perhaps later, a visit to a lively pub, a little dancing or live entertainment to cap it all off.

With Penticton's exciting range of excellent restaurants featuring sumptuous cuisines to choose from, the hardest part is making a choice. Are your taste buds set for French, East Indian, Seafood, Steak, Greek, Thai, Japanese or Chinese cuisine? Would you prefer a formal, elegant atmosphere or more casual surroundings? Penticton has a wide range of dining establishments that will match your mood with their savoury offerings.

Penticton's visitors also have a host of things to do after dinner: from taking in a a movie, challenging Lady Luck at the casino, stopping by a neighbourhood pub, bar, bingo, night clubbing, live theatre, live entertainment, disco and even a campfire on the beach.

From time to time there are concerts in the bandshell at the park and on special occasions there are spectacular fireworks displays.
