Peter Pantages is credited with the Polar Bear Swim's inception. Pantages, a Greek immigrant to Canada, swam in the English Bay all year round, according to Pantages, a Greek immigrant to Canada. The English Bay is located northwest of British Columbia's northwest coast. Pantages encouraged a few of his friends to take a dip in the freezing Vancouver waters with him on January 1, 1920. The Vancouver Polar Bear Swim Club was founded in the city. The group was originally known as the Vancouver Polar Bear Swim Club. Pantages died in 1971. However, the tradition that began one New Year's Day continues. Thousands of people take part in Polar Bear Plunges around the world today.
