It doesn’t come better than this: South Surrey boasts unparalleled access to the great outdoors.
The century-old giant sequoias are only one of the 32 different species of tree to be discovered at Redwood Park, a manmade forest offering year-round trail walking.
The 32-hectare wood was propagated with saplings from around the world by the Brown brothers – twin boys, born deaf – given the land on their 21st birthday by their pioneer father.
The area also has a cluster of great golf courses: Morgan Creek, Hazelmere and Peace Portal .
If twitching is your passion, Blackie Spit is an ornithologist’s heaven. With some 200 different species of birds spotted in any given year, it’s considered one of the best bird-watching destinations in Canada. Look out for rare sightings of snow buntings and longspurs and revel in the familiar forms of “the three amigos” – willets, marbled godwits and long-billed curlews.
For beach life, White Rock’s Semiahmoo Park offers a relaxed dog-friendly sandy stretch. Take a walk along the long pier, look back to shore and you’ll see the famous white boulder that inspired the town’s name. Native legend has it that the rock marks the spot where the Transformers, emissaries of the Sagalie Tyee, the Creator, once passed.
Go on: breathe it in.
This is exactly what the Morgan Heights communities of Highland Park and Glenmore can offer: truly, a lifestyle worth living to the full.
