Looking for some reasons to call South Surrey / White Rock home?

Climate: This area is one of the sunniest in the Lower Mainland, with about 20 percent more sunshine than Vancouver. Often while the rest of the region is under glowering cloud, White Rock will still be bright and clear. Temperatures seem to be a bit more moderate here as well, with summer averaging about 23 degrees Celsius and winter averaging around 6 degrees C.

Being at sea level, snow is also a rarity. The white stuff can be falling up the hill in Central Surrey while it’s only misting down in White Rock. With such balmy weather, it’s no wonder that the beaches here are so popular year round.

Beaches: If you enjoy waterfront strolls, you’ll love White Rock. From White Rock Beach, with its 2.5 km promenade running almost the entire length of Marine Drive to the casual gravel path along Crescent Beach, you’ll be sure to find a favourite spot. Dog lovers will appreciate East Beach, where they can unleash their friends to frolic in the waves. There is a smaller off-leash dog beach area in Crescent Beach. Even if you don’t get down to the water’s edge, almost everywhere you go in the area you can find an amazing ocean vista.Our client services team is looking forward to chatting with you soon!

Parks: White Rock is filled with parks, both large and small. From the well manicured Semiahmoo Park along the main beachfront to the more natural Crescent Park or Sunnyside Acres Urban Forest. Birdwatchers will love Blackie’s Spit in Crescent Beach while pet owners will enjoy walking their canines off leash at the appropriately named Dogwood Park.

South Surrey Athletic Park is the sports hub for the area, with soccer, grass hockey and football fields, an ice arena, track, skateboard park, BMX and bike trails aa well as extensive softball and baseball facilities. Centennial Park not far away features tennis courts, another hockey and curling rink. Public horseback riding paths are located nearby in Campbell Valley Regional Park, a 2-square-mile (535-hectare) valley located east of 200th Street in Langley. Golf, golf and more golf, South Surrey and the region is home to some of the west coast's finest golf courses and clubs.

Shopping: Once a shopping hinterland, White Rock now has almost everything you could want. Semiahmoo Mall is located in the heart of downtown White Rock. Peninsula Village features Safeway and London Drugs while SouthPointe has Save-On, Staples and Canadian Tire. The newest shopping areas are Morgan Crossing and Grandview Corners, where you have an outdoor shopping village. Across the street, more shopping with Restoration Hardware, Home Depot, Wal-Mart. Future Shop. The Brick and many other major names.
