Sooke River Salmon Run 2009 - West Coast Outdoor Adventure Rentals

Salmon getting ready to "run" up the Sooke River, Sooke, Vancouver Island, BC Canada. Hobie kayaks and Norco bikes for rent at West Coast Outdoor Adventure Rentals based at the Sooke Adventure Centre, Sooke BC. (www.SookeAdventureCentre.com)
With a rising tide I was able to paddle about 2.5km up the river from the "Sooke Bridge" on Hwy 14. This is a fantastic snapshot of the natural world - and as the video shows - not all make it. I spent over an hour with the fish continually jumping in the pools and swimming the shalllows trying to get upstream. This spectacle will only last for 3 - 4 weeks of the year and is truley a "must see" when in the area - and it is even more spectacular when amongst them on the water from the silence of a Hobie Kayak.
The Sooke River is a 45min (approx) paddle (Hobie Mirage Drive) from the Sooke Harbour Resort and Maraina. Closer launching is available.
There are many different options available when leaving from our Private Dock - Every trip is different and as these are "self guided" you are free to go and explore what interests YOU! (not the "Guide")

See our other videos on the possibilities you can discover!
