Surrey: Hazelmere: Highway 15 at 16 Avenue, looking north
The Fraser River defines Surrey’s northern edge — its broad floodplain has helped shape a city spread between river lowlands, wooded neighbourhoods and the Canada–US border. In British Columbia’s Metro Vancouver region, Surrey has developed from an agricultural municipality into one of the province’s largest cities, while farmland remains protected in the Agricultural Land Reserve. Its coastline reaches Boundary Bay, part of the Salish Sea, and southern communities include Crescent Beach and the Semiahmoo Peninsula. Surrey was incorporated in 1879; its civic character now extends from historic Cloverdale to the growing City Centre around SkyTrain’s Expo Line. Major arterial roads link these districts across an expansive urban area.

Surrey is best known within British Columbia for being the province’s second-most-populous city, after Vancouver. Spread south of the Fraser River, it combines dense town centres with agricultural land in the low-lying delta and a shoreline at Semiahmoo Bay. Communities including Newton, Guildford and Cloverdale give Surrey a distinctly polycentric character rather than a single downtown. In South Surrey, the restored Historic Stewart Farm preserves an 1890s homestead beside the Nicomekl River, recalling the area’s farming era. Bear Creek Park and the city’s extensive green spaces add breathing room to this metropolitan setting. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Surrey and British Columbia.

British Columbia has served as Canada’s Pacific frontier since joining Confederation in 1871. This vast western province extends from the Pacific coast across the Coast Mountains and interior plateaus to the Canadian Rockies; these coordinates lie in its sparsely settled northern interior. The Fraser, British Columbia’s longest river, drains a large part of the province before reaching the Strait of Georgia. First Nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain integral to communities throughout the province. Victoria, on Vancouver Island, is the provincial capital, while Vancouver is its largest city and a major Pacific port. Forestry, mining, fisheries and outdoor travel all reflect a terrain where waterways and mountain corridors matter.

Canada has served as a frontier between French and British colonial powers since the 17th century. The world’s second-largest country extends from Atlantic shores to the Pacific and Arctic coasts, with the Canadian Shield, the Rocky Mountains, the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River shaping its vast geography. First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples are central to Canada’s identity, while Ottawa’s Parliament Hill represents its federal political life. French remains the official language of Quebec, adding a distinct dimension to the country’s public culture. See how Canada connects across North America by browsing webcams in neighbouring regions.
