Paws & Patios

Travelling with your dog should be easy, not stressful. Osoyoos welcomes furry travel companions with open patios, dog-friendly beaches, off-leash parks, and a long list of accommodations that say “yes” to four-legged guests.

Sip a coffee on a dog-friendly patio, grab tacos from a local food truck and eat lakeside, splash at an off-leash beach, or tour wineries with your pup along for the ride. Many Oliver and Osoyoos wineries welcome dogs (call ahead to double-check).

Pack the leash, the water bowl, and the treats. Your dog’s vacation starts here.
