The city
City between two lakes, Okanagan to the north and Skaha to the south, with beaches at both ends and a channel where people float downstream in the summer. On the waterfront is the SS Sicamous steamship, and south of town the cliffs of Skaha Bluffs draw climbers. Around the area are the vineyards of Naramata and Summerland.
