| Snorkelers enjoy a day out on the water with Destiny River Adventures |
Mental Floss magazine named it one of “The
12 Weirdest Experiences You Can Have in Canada”. Growing up in Campbell River,
this didn’t really strike me as a “weird experience”, but I guess it might be a
bit odd to those who aren’t used to it. Snorkeling with the Salmon has been
covered by several different media outlets including the Rick Mercer Report and
the Globe and Mail.
In 2014, Globe and Mail reporter Alexandra Gill (what a fitting last name!) said this of the excursion: “Slipping on my mask and snorkel, I dunk my face in the water. Arms stretched out in front of me – “like Superman,” as instructed – I float through the gentle current until the blurry glimmer sharpens into an aquatic bas-relief of whitish-pink bellies and scaly tails… Whoa! I really am snorkelling with salmon – thousands of them.”
