SCUBA CLAUS SWIMS WITH THE FISHES AT THE VANCOUVER AQUARIUM

Vancouver, BC: Aquarium visitors were treated to a special treat today as Scuba Claus dived with halibut, herring, rockfish and sturgeon in the Aquarium’s Strait of Georgia exhibit.

Most of us have heard of Santa sliding down the chimney, but many don’t know that he scuba dives. Santa will be swimming with the fishes in our Strait of Georgia exhibit at 12 p.m. on December 15, 16, 22, 23 and 24.

Scuba Claus is a preview to the Aquarium’s holiday activities, which run from December 26 to January 6 and include special winter crafts, extra shows and music from children’s entertainers Bobs and Lolo. The Aquarium will also be open on Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day.
