Okanagan Lake in British Columbia, Canada, has been carved out by glaciations and is often called a fjord lake. The 135-km (21.7-mi) body of water is deep, but there are two shallow reaches that have an abundance of plankton. In addition, many locals believe that the lake is home to the mythical Ogopogo creature.
Before the arrival of the Europeans, the territory around the lake belonged to the Okanagan people, or Syilx, who lived there for thousands of years. The region is now a prime tourist site because of its natural beauty and gorgeous landscapes, including Peachland and Bear Creek Provincial Park, making it a perfect getaway for families and adventurers.
