                         INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT


The Board of Directors
Pacific Life Insurance Company

     We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of the
Pacific Select Variable Annuity Separate Account (comprised of the Money Market,
High Yield Bond, Managed Bond, Government Securities, Growth, Aggressive Equity,
Growth LT, Equity Income, Multi-Strategy, Equity, Bond and Income, Equity Index,
International and Emerging Markets Variable Accounts) as of December 31, 1997
and the related statement of operations for the year then ended and statement of
changes in net assets for each of the two years then ended (as to the Aggressive
Equity Variable Account and the Emerging Markets Variable Account, for the year
ended December 31, 1997 and for the period from commencement of operations
through December 31, 1996). These financial statements are the responsibility of
the Separate Account's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion
on these financial statements based on our audits.
 
     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
     In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of each of the respective Variable Accounts
constituting the Pacific Select Variable Annuity Separate Account as of December
31, 1997 and the results of their operations for the year then ended and the
changes in their net assets for each of the two years then ended (as to the
Aggressive Equity Variable Account and the Emerging Markets Variable Account,
for the year ended December 31, 1997 and for the period from commencement of
operations through December 31, 1996), in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

Variable Account, the Managed Bond Variable Account, the Government Securities
Variable Account, the Growth Variable Account (not offered to new Contract
Owners beginning January 1, 1994), the Aggressive Equity Variable Account, the
Growth LT Variable Account, the Equity Income Variable Account, the Multi-
Strategy Variable Account, the Equity Variable Account, the Bond and Income
Variable Account, the Equity Index Variable Account, the International Variable
Account, and the Emerging Markets Variable Account.  The assets in each Variable
Account are invested in shares of the corresponding portfolios of Pacific Select
Fund (the "Fund"), each of which pursues different investment objectives and
policies.  The financial statements of the Fund, including the schedules of
investments, are  included elsewhere in this report and should be read in
conjunction with the Separate Account's financial statements.

  The Separate Account was established by Pacific Life Insurance Company
(formerly named Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company - see Note 1 to Financial
Statements of the Fund on A-66) on November 30, 1989 and commenced operations on
July 24, 1990. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the
Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other assets
and liabilities of Pacific Life. The assets of the Separate Account will not be
charged with any liabilities arising out of any other business conducted by
Pacific Life, but the obligations of the Separate Account, including benefits
related to variable annuities, are obligations of Pacific Life.

  The Separate Account held by Pacific Life represents funds from individual
flexible premium variable accumulation deferred annuity contracts (the
"Contracts"). The assets of the Separate Account are carried at market value.

  The preparation of the accompanying financial statements requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of
income and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ
from those estimates.

 A. Valuation of Investments

  Investments in shares of the Fund are valued at the reported net asset values
of the respective portfolios.  Valuation of securities held by the Fund is
discussed in the notes to its financial statements.

 B. Security Transactions

  Transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on
sales of investments are determined on the basis of identified cost.

 C. Federal Income Taxes

  The operations of the Separate Account will be reported on the Federal income
tax return of Pacific Life, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the
provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986.  Under current tax law, no Federal
income taxes are expected to be paid by Pacific Life with respect to the
operations of the Separate Account.

2. DIVIDENDS

  During 1997, the Fund has declared dividends for each portfolio except for the
Aggressive Equity Portfolio. The amounts accrued by the Separate Account for its
share of the dividends were reinvested in additional full and fractional shares
of the related portfolio.

3. CHARGES AND EXPENSES

  Pacific Life charges the Separate Account daily for mortality and expense
risks assumed with respect to the Contracts funded by the Separate Account at an
annual rate of 1.25% of the average daily net assets of each Variable Account.
Under the Contracts, Pacific Life makes certain deductions from the net assets
of each Variable Account for administrative expenses, contract maintenance, any
state premium taxes, and any surrender charges.  The operating expenses of the
Separate Account are paid by Pacific Life.

4. RELATED PARTY AGREEMENT

  Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Life,
is the principal underwriter of variable life insurance policies funded by
interests in the Separate Account, and is compensated by Pacific Life.
