Named in honor of the World War One veteran Lance Corporal Arthur Thomas Fleetwood who passed away in battle, Surrey’s Fleetwood neighbourhood is a thriving community living up to the honour of its namesake. As one of the fastest growing neighbourhoods in Surrey, Fleetwood boasts over twenty-five parks, a competitive sport scene, and nostalgic suburban charm that makes even the farthest traveller feel right at home.
Rest and Relax
Fleetwood has some of the best remedies for exhaustion: golf and the spa! Did you know that golfers live 5 years longer than non-golfers? Hit the green at either Eaglequest Coyote Creek or Surrey Golf Club, it’s for your health, after all *wink*. Prefer your R&R indoors? Treat yourself at the Forever Young Spa, an unsuspecting little store next to Save On Foods. With massages, foot treatments, and facials you’ll leave feeling like you’re ready to face whatever life throws at you.
Year Round Sunshine
Whoever says summer can’t be year round has never been to Fleetwood! Edith + Arthur Public House serve a watermelon mojito that is liquid sunshine in a cup. But if you’re feeling a little peckish, check out Fresh St. Market for the rest of your culinary needs. Fresh cheese, seafood, produce and deli products are available here year round to help you reminisce on your favourite summer farmer’s markets.
Competitive Spirit
Surrey’s very own minor league hockey team, the Thunder, call the Surrey Sports and Leisure Arena in Fleetwood their home. Locals and visitors alike come to the games to take part in Canada’s favourite sport. If you want to participate in the action yourself, Ambush Paintball offers you the chance to jump into one of four different fields for your warrior side to be unleashed.
