British Columbia Travel GuideThe unofficial BC Travel & Tourism Guide
This exciting seaside community is clustered around eight kilometers of sandy beach and the warm shallow waters of Semiahmoo Bay invite visitors to spend time on long walks. The gentle winds and bright summer sunshine warms the heart and relaxes the mind. Stop on the public lawns that back the beach to enjoy a picnic or to enjoy the view. Many residents have considered this area the perfect retirement community with wonderful parks, ravine trails, neighboring golf-courses, gardens, library, convenient beach access, and village shops and galleries.
