Fintry is a small community in British Columbia, Canada.

[1] It lies on the west shore of Okanagan Lake, 24 kilometres (15 mi) north of the city of Kelowna, and 50 kilometres (31 mi) south of Vernon.

Shorts Creek, once known as the Elk River and Rivière à la Biche, is a medium sized stream that runs through the middle of the community.

[2] The creek is named after Captain Thomas Dolman Shorts, a ship captain for the Canadian Pacific Railway Lake and River Service steamboats on Okanagan Lake who was the first non-native to land at the creek and the surrounding area.

Fintry Falls, accessed via a steep stairway, is located in a small canyon where Shorts Creek drops into the town toward the lake.
