The 1970 Pacific hurricane season was an active Northern hemisphere hurricane season, especially during its early months. It officially started on May 15, 1970, in the eastern Pacific Ocean (east of 140°W), and on June 1, 1970, in the central Pacific (between 140°W and the International Date Line). It ended on November 30, 1970, in both regions. These dates conventionally delimit the period of each year when most tropical cyclogenesis occurs in these parts of the Pacific.

This season had an above average number of storms. There were 21 tropical cyclones, of which 18 reached tropical storm strength. Four storms became hurricanes, of which none reached major hurricane strength. In the central Pacific, one hurricane and one tropical depression formed. One of the depressions crossed the Date Line to become a typhoon in the western Pacific.
