Pacifica

Pacifica is a Class O ocean planet and Federation Member State in the Taurus Reach region, located in the Alpha Quadrant.
Homeworld to the Selkie species, it is also the location of a Federation colony.

Pacifica is famed for its warm blue waters and fine beaches, considered to be a "jewel in the galaxy", and making it a popular tourist destination.
Other attractions on Pacifica include the vast underwater city of hi'Leyi'a.

In the early 24th century, Pacifica was the subject of an oceanographic study headed by Doctor Gillian Taylor.

Following the Raid on San Francisco by the Breen during the Dominion War, and the broadcast of images of the damaged Golden Gate Bridge, applications to join Starfleet from Pacifica increased.
