About Kekuli Bay, Kalamalka Lake, BC

Kekuli Bay Provincial Park Is situated in the endlessly scenic Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, and is just a few minutes south of the city of Vernon. It is a gorgeous bay that shimmers with aquamarine colors and is perfectly located on the world-famous Kalamalka Lake. The park has a convenient campground with stunning views of the lake, along with easy access to the water and boat launch. The grounds have large tracts of shrub-steppe grasslands that are common around the Okanagan Valley. The beaches are memorizing and the crystal clear water is visually inviting and can be seen from the nearby highway as you drive between Kelowna and Vernon.

Things to do

Hiking

There is a 2.5 km walking trail within the park, as well as several trailheads for other hiking paths including the 50 km long Okanagan Rail Trail and the Campbell Brown Ecological Reserve. The Okanagan Rail Trail provides walking, running, or biking along incredible lakeside vistas with perfect sandy beaches and intersects the village of Oyama.

Beaches

Kekuli Bay has several beaches that contain vibrant blue waters that seem to belong in the Caribbean as opposed to Canada. If the park seems a little busy, as it tends to get in the summer, you can always walk a little way down the Rail Trail and score a completely private beach all to yourself. Kekuli’s beaches also provide the perfect spot to launch your kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards, and in the midst of the summer, there is a small rental kiosk where you can get these items.
