PACIFIC FISH & SHARKS · BRITISH COLUMBIA
Discover the Fish & Sharks of British Columbia
From the elusive bluntnose sixgill shark to brilliantly coloured rockfish and extraordinary bottom-dwelling species, British Columbia's coastal waters are home to an incredible diversity of fish.
Beneath the surface of Vancouver Island and the Salish Sea, rocky reefs, kelp forests, and deep underwater walls support a remarkable variety of marine life. Yelloweye, quillback, copper, and China rockfish inhabit complex reef habitats, while powerful lingcod, camouflaged cabezon, and colourful greenlings occupy the surrounding rocky terrain.
Other encounters reveal an entirely different side of the Pacific Ocean. Sixgill sharks patrol deeper coastal waters, spotted ratfish glide above the seafloor, and skates rest against sandy bottoms. Schools of Pacific herring move together through the water column, creating spectacular scenes that illustrate the richness of British Columbia's marine ecosystems.
Our original 4K underwater footage captures these animals in their natural habitats, from detailed close-ups and individual wildlife encounters to wide-angle reef scenes and natural swimming behaviour. Footage is available for documentary, broadcast, educational, and commercial licensing.
