About South Surrey

Located just outside of Vancouver, South Surrey is one of the most desirable areas for families and singles alike. Close to beautiful beaches, you’ll never be pressed for things to do. Walk the shoreline of Crescent Beach; known for its soft sand and warm shallow waters, it’s the perfect place for a quick dip or paddle-boarding session. With proximity to the ferries and neighbouring cities such as Vancouver and Fraser Valley, you’ll be enveloped in a sense of adventure.

With hundreds of parks just outside your front door, your kids will have space to run and play. A great area for morning jogs or afternoon walks, this healthy, well-rounded community is home to the famous 1001 Steps Park. Here, you can enjoy the waterfront views and natural landscapes while walking the beautiful trail. For the cycling enthusiasts, take your bike down the Boundary Bay Trail, a 20-kilometre path stretching from Centennial Beach to Mud Bay.

An incredible option when looking to invest in BC’s booming real estate market, South Surrey is quickly becoming a hot spot for real estate buyers. This area offers luxurious living by the ocean, making it one of the more expensive options compared to neighbouring areas. However, compared to downtown living, homes in South Surrey are built with larger floorplans. Not only does this lead to more comfortable living, but it’s a better value for your money and offers incredible water views.

South Surrey is full of family-friendly activities and recreational draws to suit every household. Home to the newly built Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre, this state-of-the-art facility has it all. Perfect your backstroke in their Olympic-size competition pool or relax as you flow down the lazy river. With amenities such as waterslides, hot tubs, steam rooms, saunas, diving boards, fitness centre, and a weight room, your family can have it all.

If looking for a neighbourhood that will have your taste buds tingling, South Surrey is the one. Full of specialty shops and a variety of restaurants, South Surrey is home to quaint bistros, fun-loving pubs, and local staples. If you’re looking to treat yourself to a night of luxury, book a reservation at the renowned My Shanti by Vikram Vij. Combining contemporary design with classical cuisine, Tap Restaurant is another local favourite.

Visit the White Rock shoreline to find restaurants with beautiful views, such as Sushi Iwa, Cilantro Indian Cuisine, Charlie Don’t Surf, Jan’s on the Beach, Cosmos Greek Restaurant, Oceanside Public House, and many, many more. From independent markets to casual comforts, both South Surrey and White Rock are home to many local eats.

White Rock, once a part of Surrey, has been its own municipality since 1960. Since South Surrey shares a peninsula with White Rock, the names are often used interchangeably. However, White Rock is its own area, home to a thriving community and jaw-dropping landscapes. With a stunning beachfront, it’s reminiscent of a Californian beach. Full of funky cafes, artsy stores, and the freshest seafood imaginable, you’ll love sharing a road with this thriving area.
