Chapter 52 - Caddy of Cadboro Bay

While the legendary Bigfoot gets a great deal of attention in this state, you might not have heard of Caddy (short for Cadborosaurus), the local sea monster hanging out in Cadboro Bay.

Cadborosaurus, nicknamed Caddy by journalist Archie Wills, is a sea serpent in the folklore of regions of the Pacific Coast of North America. Its name is derived from Cadboro Bay in Greater Victoria, British Columbia, and the Greek root word "Saurus" means lizard or reptile.
