<P> The boundaries between White Rock and Surrey are Bergstrom Road (136 Street) to the west, North Bluff Road (16th Avenue) to the north, Stayte Road (160 Street) to the east, and 8th Avenue to the south . The area south of 8 Avenue from Stayte Road westward to where 8 Avenue meets the water is the Semiahmoo Indian Reserve and lies within the bounds of the City of Surrey (though it is governed separately). The Surrey neighbourhoods of Ocean Park and Crescent Beach lie immediately to the northwest . </P> <P> White Rock has a moderate climate, with average daily high temperatures of 23 degrees Celsius in summer and 6 degrees Celsius in winter . </P> <P> White Rock is named for a distinctive large white boulder on its beach near the promenade, a glacial erratic that migrated south during the last glaciation . The 486 - ton granite boulder was kept white by shellfish - eating seabirds whose guano covered the rock, so much so that 19th - century sailors used it as a beacon . However, it is now kept white through monthly applications of white paint by the city parks department, and has been a popular graffiti target for over thirty years . </P> <P> The pier and promenade are popular destinations, but do not allow dogs, bicycles or skateboards . These areas are very busy during the warmer summer months, especially when it comes to line - ups for gelato or fish and chips . </P>
