THE 2008 SPIRIT OF THE SEA FESTIVAL will be held on AUGUST 1, 2 and 3.

The Spirit of the Sea Festival is an annual weekend-long celebration in the proud community of White Rock, British Columbia. A variety of events span more than 2 kilometers along the waterfront overlooking the silver beaches of Semiahmoo Bay.

Now in its 59th year, the “Spirit of the Sea” is a family oriented celebration of the water, land and life of the Semiahmoo Peninsula. Driven by the dedication and spirit of community partners, donors and volunteers, the Festival has evolved into a world-class event.

Over 80,000 spectators and participants visited the Festival last year from across the Pacific Northwest, and beyond.

Join us for a wonderful, summertime tradition.
