Okanagan Safe Harbour
Features and Things To Do:
Okanagan Centre Safe Harbour provides safety for boaters during a storm with one
of the only safe harbours in the area. The harbour contains two docks for emergency
and pedestrian use, a small swimming beach and a boat launch.
Notice to Boaters -
January 28, 2010 --
the
boat launch is closed
until further notice due
to problems with one of
the concrete pads.
View News Release
for more details and
alternate launch
facilities.
When available this boat launch is
suitable for smaller
boats and trailers due
to lower lake water
levels.
