Oliver's dining scene covers everything from tried-and-tested restaurants along Main Street to those within wineries and golf courses. A romantic evening in low-lit interiors awaits at Pappa's Firehall Bistro whose signature specialties include Mediterranean fire-grilled chicken, and the Firehall Vintage sangria cocktail. Housed in a former Catholic Church, Medici's Gelateria & Coffee House offers over 40 flavours of premium Italian ice cream, along with a pleasing selection of fresh soups, wraps, salads, and paninis.
The Rattlesnake Lounge at the sprawling Inkameep Canyon Desert Golf Course keeps diners satisfied with its tasty nachos, fish tacos, poutines, and signature mussels. The views are to-die-for too! Finally, don't leave Oliver without stopping by at one of its wineries. The award-winning Miradoro Restaurant at Tinhorn Creek Winery is a must for its Italian specialties. When spice cravings set in, consider digging into some creamy butter chicken, crispy samosas (pastry parcels filled with meat or vegetables) and tangy paneer (cottage cheese) dishes at Best of India Restaurant.
Housed inside the former BC Provincial Police station, the Oliver Museum is a good place to learn about the region's fur trading, mining, and ranching past, as well as South Okanagan's colourful ecosystem. Artifacts here provide an insightful snapshot into the lives of the Syilx Okanagan people. While here, don't miss the original jail of Fairview town, which lies just behind the museum.

Once back from your day trip, catch the latest Hollywood blockbuster or foreign language film at the independent Oliver Theatre. Venables Theatre is worth visiting for its hilarious stand-up comedy, dance spectacles, and tribute acts, including the likes of Queen, Edith Piaf, and Bruce Springsteen.
For a day of quiet relaxation, unwind at Rotary Beach by Tuc-el-Nuit Lake, known for its picture postcard views of the lake and mountains. Or how about a bike ride down the International Hike and Bike Trail which runs alongside the Okanagan River.

Kobau, a very accessible mountain.
Wine aficionados will certainly enjoy the Golden Mile Stamp Mill Trail which meanders through some of Okanagan's Valley's best wineries. Winter vacationers will love visiting Mt. Baldy, a winter wonderland where you can go skiing, tobogganing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing to your heart's content.
