Dating by city / Canada / British Columbia / Kelowna
Members from Kelowna and towns within 50 km who make their profile public will appear here.

Within 50 km of Kelowna there are 8 towns and cities — Vernon, Penticton and West Kelowna among them — with more than 290,000 residents in all. In the app you choose the distance yourself: from 10 km to 500 km, or “Any distance”.
Yes. YADate is a free online dating site, in Kelowna and everywhere else: profiles, search filters, likes, messages, voice messages and gifts cost nothing, and there is no premium plan. The only limits are daily caps against spam, such as 40 new conversations a day.
YADate never creates fake profiles or writes on behalf of people who don't exist. A moderator checks every photo before it appears, every member confirms an email address, and any profile can be reported. Anyone who asks for money or pushes you to move to another app straight away is worth reporting.
