Okanagan Falls Provincial Park, Provincial park in Okanagan-Similkameen, British Columbia, Canada.

The two-hectare Sx̌ʷəx̌ʷnitkʷ Provincial Park sits along the western edge of Okanagan Falls, next to the flowing Okanogan River in British Columbia.

Established on March 16, 1956, this protected area underwent a name change from Okanagan Falls Provincial Park to Sx̌ʷəx̌ʷnitkʷ Provincial Park in 2015.

BC Parks and the Osoyoos Indian Band jointly manage the park, incorporating First Nations traditions and knowledge into the site's conservation efforts.

The park maintains 25 designated camping spots suitable for both tents and recreational vehicles, with standard washroom facilities available for visitors.

The name Sx̌ʷəx̌ʷnitkʷ means Little Falls in the Okanagan language, referencing the Kettle Falls where Indigenous peoples traditionally fished for salmon.
