Welcome to the okanagan . Dependant on where u r staying I like many beaches . Oyama by the general store is Sandy. Gyro in kelowna is want so is city park . Penticton does more to cater to the beach crowd all of their beaches are Sandy and beautiful

with children I would probably just go to the main beach right beside the bridge on the Kelowna side.
There is usually parking within walking distance, lots for children to see and play with. Plus there should be several other visiting families, so they may make some long term friends.

There are also some nice beaches behind and past the hospital. However they are harder to get to and can be tough to find parking at. The advantage is they are often free parking, if you can find a spot.

I'm more interested in what you mean by "area."

If you're down in Summerland, then the Sun-Oka Beach is what I'd recommend.

Kelowna? The Hot Sands beach downtown Kelowna has steep drop offs and quickly.

Gyro and Rotary Beaches down Lakeshore Drive has more forgiving depths and in my opinion, nicer beach toys. Both have beach toy rental booths too.

Oh peachland is good as it gets . Just go to beach avenue. Have fun . One of the docks is dedicated to a man who was like the dad I never had . I love peachland . Spent many days and nights on the water there

Okanagan Falls has a nice Skaha Lake Beach for kids. Good day trip from Peachland too. And there is Tickleberrys, an ice cream place just outside the town, good ice cream for the kids.

For sure JFlem, the beach walk is nice but there are no sandy beaches for kids to dig into there and then run into the lake. I love the Peachland Museum with it's realistic mini railroad set up upstairs.

Kids can jump off the docks . Parents can enjoy a highly illegal beverage beachside. Love peachland

Depends on how old the kids are. Five, no. Ten? Yes.

Fair enuff . Heck if you got real young ones the beach is gonna be tuff no matter where you go . No matter what thank you for spending your tourist dollars in the okanagan .

The beaches in Summerland have a kids spray park and it may be open by now but it did sustain shoreline damage. Might be fixed by now.

I don't think it will be tough keeping them occupied in City Park if the Water Park is open.

City Park does have a spray park and for older kids there is the business anchored there with the water park floating adventure land. I just don't like how fast the drop off is and never got comfortable with it. I think the water is colder too because of that drop off. But that's just me.
