An enormous moon jellyfish bloom has outdoor cinematographers racing to a dock off of North Vancouver’s Deep Cove. Abundant in coastal B.C. waters and found in West Coast bays and harbours from California to Alaska, it’s a good thing moon jellyfish don’t have much of a sting.

Those diving into the cold waters of the Indian Arm — səl̓ilw̓ət in Hun’qumyi’num — are reporting thousands of them clumped together.

“All of a sudden you’re in this amphitheatre of floating jellyfish just pulsating,” said wildlife conservation photographer Steve Woods. “They’re just all over you, everywhere you look.”

“You’re basically swimming through the jellyfish and they’re bouncing off your face,” added cinematographer Josh Goodman. “There will be times you can’t actually move through them because they’re so thick.”

Jay Durant has more.
