Overview

The community of South Surrey is commonly viewed as a more upscale part of the city. There is a perception of this area being cleaner and safer than North Surrey. South Surrey has many wonderful character neighbourhoods, with amazing curb appeal. The pride of ownership is evident in most areas, with well maintained homes and landscaping. Generally speaking, South Surrey has a higher socio-economic profile compared to other parts of the city.

South Surrey offers amazing coastal and mountain views. It is home to Crescent Beach, two border crossings to the United States and many wonderful parks with tall trees.

Parks & Recreation

The parks that dot South Surrey are simply a beautiful way to connect with nature. The tall trees that make up so many of the urban forests are something to behold and enjoy. There are just so many nice parks here that there are too many to name. I suggest using the Surrey Parks webpage to use their park search tool.

 South Surrey Athletic Park is a large athletic park with fun options for kids, youth and families. This park offers facilities for soccer, football, rugby, baseball, tennis, pickleball and volleyball. The park also features a variety of pathways and walking loops, a BMX bike park, a playground and a waterpark. Indoor venues nearby include South Surrey Recreation Centre and South Surrey Arena.

Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre

Visit Crescent Beach for a fun day on the seaside! Enjoy swimming, beach volleyball and scenic views from the pier and nature trails. This is a very popular beach in the area and well worth the visit.

Also, it is worth noting that the stunning White Rock promenade and pier are relatively close by. That is also an attraction popular with locals and visitors alike.
