Salmon Run

Every fall, a breathtaking natural phenomenon of a salmon run unfolds as millions of Pacific salmon embark on an epic migration up the rivers of Canada’s west coast to spawn the next generation. Witnessing this journey, whether it’s Coho, Chum, Pink, Sockeye, or Chinook salmon is an unforgettable experience. Thousands of fish flash by you as they navigate up to 50km/day in their upstream journey. 

One of the most accessible and prolific rivers is the Campbell River on Vancouver Island. Here, a stunning 2-kilometer snorkel allows you to immerse yourself in this extraordinary aquatic spectacle, providing an up-close encounter with thousands of salmon as they journey toward their spawning grounds.
