Pacifica on Marine: Waterfront Living Steps From White Rock Beach
If you've ever wanted to wake up to ocean views and walk to the pier for your morning coffee, Pacifica on Marine at 14965 Marine Drive deserves a close look. This boutique lowrise sits directly across the street from White Rock Beach and the famous pier, placing owners in the very centre of the community's waterfront lifestyle.
Built in 1993, Pacifica on Marine is a small, 25-unit residential/commercial building. That scale matters: with fewer homes than most newer towers, it offers a quieter, more intimate ownership experience along one of the busiest and most scenic stretches of the Semiahmoo Peninsula.

What the Homes Offer
Pacifica's units were designed to capture the coastal setting, and the interiors reflect a warm, west coast character. Features commonly found in the building include:
- Floor-to-ceiling bay windows that pull in natural light and ocean views
- Crown mouldings and skylights for added architectural detail and brightness
- Brazilian cherry wood laminate flooring throughout each home
- Bright white kitchens that keep the living spaces fresh and airy
- Cozy fireplaces for those cool, misty Pacific evenings
- Full master ensuite for added comfort and privacy
- Spacious balcony and patio with panoramic ocean views
The balcony and patio spaces are a major draw. Few things compare to watching the sun set over Semiahmoo Bay from your own outdoor space, with the sound of the waterfront just across the street.
The Location: Heart of White Rock
Marine Drive is the beating heart of White Rock. From Pacifica on Marine, you have direct, walkable access to:
- The White Rock Pier and the beachfront promenade
- Waterfront restaurants, cafes, and patios
- Local shops, services, and the farmers' market scene
- Everyday conveniences without needing a car
For buyers who prioritize walkability and a true seaside lifestyle, this is about as central as it gets. Rather than driving to the beach, the beach is your front yard. You can explore how the neighbourhood fits together on our interactive map.
How Pacifica Fits the White Rock Market
White Rock currently has 316 active listings with an average price of roughly $1.55 million, while nearby Crescent Beach / Ocean Park averages closer to $2.37 million across 109 listings. Condos in a waterfront lowrise like Pacifica sit in a distinctive niche: you get ocean proximity and the Marine Drive lifestyle at a very different price point than the oceanview single-family homes found in the broader market.
That makes a building like this appealing to several types of buyers:
- Downsizers who want a low-maintenance home near the water without giving up space or character
- Lifestyle buyers and second-home owners seeking a seaside retreat with walkable amenities
- Professionals and retirees who value a boutique building over a large high-rise
Things to Consider Before Buying
As with any building, due diligence matters. Because Pacifica on Marine is a mixed residential/commercial property built in 1993, buyers should:
- Review the strata documents, including minutes, financial statements, and any depreciation report
- Ask about recent or planned building maintenance and any special levies
- Confirm pet, rental, and use policies that may apply to your plans
- Understand how the commercial component may affect day-to-day activity around the building
