Crescent Beach

White Rock Pier

The city’s pier stretches 1,540 feet into the ocean. It was built in 1914 as a dock for coastal steamships. The pier was saved from destruction in 1976, and has since become a major visitor attraction.

Great White Rock

This is the great white boulder for which the city is named. Legends claim the son of a sea god tossed this 486.63 ton magical rock across the seas to prove his strength. It landed on the shores of Semiahmoo Bay and became known as the Great White Rock.

Peace Arch Park

At the Douglas Border Crossing, Highway 99.
The Peace Arch stands as a symbol of enduring friendship between Canada and the U.S.A. Completed in 1921 as the world's first peace arch. It is surrounded by grass and the well kept flower gardens of Peace Arch Park.

Whaling Wall

The 21 metre long whale mural was painted by Wyland, then a 28 year old California artist. The three life-size grey whales leaping through the blue sea is the fourth of 15 whale murals Wyland has planned to paint on buildings around the world, in order to help protect the whale.
