Crescent Beach Pier Sunset & Silhouettes (EXPLORED - Thank-you!)

            South Surrey, BC Canada

Crescent Beach is a beach side community within South Surrey, British Columbia next to Boundary Bay and Mud Bay across from Delta, British Columbia. It is home to 1,200 residents, mostly in single-family homes. 

Visit Crescent Beach for a fun day on the seaside! Enjoy swimming, beach volleyball and scenic views from the pier and nature trails. The best beach access points are found on Beecher Street, Sullivan Street, and Target Street. At Sullivan Point, you will find spots to play beach volleyball and a large grassy area ideal for a blanket picnic.

Crescent Beach dates back to 1909 when development of the Great Northern Railway first made the beach easily accessible to the public. In 1912, this area was promoted as a resort area complete with a trendy hotel, pier and train station. One year later, dykes were built to prevent flooding and allow for development of the surrounding neighbourhood.

Today, the dykes are used as a waterfront pathway and while the hotel and train station have long since disappeared, the beach remains a popular summer destination for families.
