West is the direction towards which the sun sets at the equinox, and therefore the direction opposite that of the Earth's rotation.
By convention, the left side of a map is west.
The etymology of West can be traced back to the Old High German word westar, and perhaps to the Latin word vesper, meaning "evening", possibly derived from the Greek Hesperos.

Face the Pacific Ocean. Opposite the Atlantic Ocean. This is only true if you are on the No. American Continent. You ever thought of watching the Sun set? Just do it.
Yup! Got it.
