Big Waves & Bigger Plans in South Britannia
Big news just rolled in from the Sea-to-Sky corridor: after years of reviews, tweaks, and community feedback, the South Britannia project has officially been greenlit.
This isn't just another development- it’s a full-on lifestyle shift.
Think: Canada’s first surf park, paired with a thoughtfully planned community that’s set to bring 1,050 new homes, green spaces, a skate park, and public amenities to the picturesque coastline between Vancouver and Squamish.
Phase 1 is expected to kick off in 2026, with a wave lagoon, surf cabins, and mixed housing at the core. Bonus: 150 of those homes are planned as affordable units - a solid step toward inclusivity in the corridor.
Local governance made sure this isn’t just smoke and mirrors. Promised amenities are now locked into the plan, not optional add-ons that might disappear down the road. That’s a win for future residents and long-time locals alike.
Whether you're a real estate watcher, investor, or future surf shack dreamer - this is one to keep an eye on.
