The Sails

"Spirit Of Sail" (known locally as 'The Sails') is a 40-foot, 4000 pound fiberglass sculpture that has become an icon of the city of Kelowna. It can be found where Bernard Avenue meets the waterfront, usually surrounded by tourists taking photos. It was installed in 1978 by a Scottish sculptor named Robert Dow Reid. The Sails serve as an important landmark, meeting place and rest area for locals and tourists alike in the city of Kelowna. Head over to the famous Earls On Top across the street for a patio meal overlooking the lake, and then grab an ice cream cone at nearby Moo-Lix to enjoy while
