TouristWire Editors

If you’re a vacationer looking for a beautiful beach town with plenty of activities to keep you busy, White Rock could be the perfect destination for you!

It’s a very popular place to visit during the summer months, with its stunning coastline, beaches, pier, and a wide selection of restaurants, bars, and cafés.

It’s also home to a small museum where you can learn more about the history of the area and get information about the various attractions it has to offer.

If you’re a fan of seafood, be sure to stop for a takeout at Moby Dick – White Rock’s most famous eatery for fish and chips.

The White Rock Farmers Market is another must-see, where you can buy everything from fresh produce, artisan breads, and organic honey to leatherwork and handcrafted jewelry.

The community also hosts a number of festivals and events throughout the year, including the annual Polar Bear Swim on New Year’s Day, Canada Day by the Bay, and the Tour de White Rock cycling race every July.
