Salmon Experience at Bayshore Preserve

Join Capitol Land Trust (CLT) and the Puget Sound Estuarium to witness one of nature’s most extraordinary displays of migration and resilience. Every year thousands of chum salmon return from the ocean to Johns Creek at Bayshore Preserve where their lives began. Here they spawn, marking the transition of one generation of salmon to the next.

Salmon docents will be at Bayshore Preserve on November 4, 5, 10, 11 and 12, 2023 from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm. They will be there to answer your questions about salmon behavior and our salmon habitat restoration efforts at Bayshore Preserve. Look for their bright orange vests.

Managed by Capitol Land Trust, Bayshore Preserve is a conserved public-access preserves that gives families and individuals year-round opportunities to enjoy outdoor experiences and create fond memories in nature that will last a lifetime. The return of salmon in the fall makes our Bayshore Preserve a particularly exceptional destination. Follow CLT and the the Estuarium on social media for real-time updates about this iconic Pacific Northwest phenomenon.
