All in Beaches
There are beaches with gorgeous Pacific Ocean settings like in Vancouver and the Gulf Islands or beaches with calm fresh waters like in the Okanagan Valley and the Kootenays. With over 40,000 islands in BC alone, it would be nearly impossible to put a number on how many beaches there is or to actually know for certain which ones are the best. British Columbia has always been a much sought after destination and with all the beaches, lakes, and islands it’s not hard to see why.
Fun activities can be enjoyed year-round in Lake Havasu, Arizona and with more than 300 days of clear skies, you can bet sunshine is always abundant. It is a literal oasis in the desert and is surrounded by gorgeous, but hot, dry and beautifully desolate landscapes that make the lake seem all the more inviting. Lake Havasu City is a haven for water sports and party boats, so on spring break, the city fills up with tourists, in particular college students who are looking to let loose.
It is nicknamed “the lake of many colors”, due to the gorgeous arrangement of blues and greens displayed in an array of every shade imaginable. Not only is the lake visually pleasing, but it can also offer physical enjoyment while you splash around in the crystal clear luke-warm waters. Kalamalka is nestled in the dry, semi-arid Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, and on a super hot summer day, it seems as if the lake almost hypnotizes you, drawing you in with its beautiful azure color pallete.
Ellison Provincial Park is situated on the outskirts of the city of Vernon, in the fantastic Okanagan Valley, British Columbia. It has spectacular scenery with sheltered coves of clear jade colored waters, along with gorgeous red sand beaches that are unmatched in their unique beauty. There are many hiking trails throughout the park that take you precariously along the edges of high cliffs that overlook the shores of Okanagan Lake.
