Beneath the waters of Okanagan Lake lives a legend! To much of the world, Ogopogo is Canada's answer to the Loch Ness Monster. Upwards of sixty feet in length, with a serpentine body, tale of a whale, and the head of a dragon, this creature is one of the most documented cryptids in the world. It has also become a major tourist attraction and mascot for residents of the Okanagan Valley. But there's more to Ogopogo than the countless sightings, frightening folk tales, and children's books. The story of Ogopogo dates back to before European settlers arrived in the region. To the Indigenous people who first called the land home, Ogopogo is more than just a monster - it's a spiritual being of great significance. In May 2023 researcher Jason Hewlett and filmmaker Eli Watson ventured to Okanagan Lake in an effort to unlock the mystery of its most famous resident. Mixing eyewitness reports, historical research, and a boots-on-the-ground investigation, The Legend of Ogopogo: Canada's Loch Ness Monsters provides an in-depth exploration of the lake monster's story - and a possible answer as to what Ogopogo might be.
