Arctic
exploration in Nunavut begins in 1576 with
Martin Frobisher and the quest for the Northwest
Passage. He found what he thought to be gold in
a bay that now bears his namesake – Frobisher
Bay – also the former name of Nunavut’s capital
city Iqaluit. The gold turned out to be fools
gold, but the quest for the Northwest Passage
continued for the next 300 years and shaped much
of the Arctic’s history. |

Nunavut
Nunavut
is the eastern member in our trio of Canadian Territories,
which combined make up our northern world of National Parks,
wildlife, nature and stunning scenery stretching east to
west – across the top of North America.
There are few places as undiscovered as
Nunavut, yet it makes
up
20% of Canada’s total size. Nunavut is all about excitement
and high adventure, a rare opportunity to do something
different with your life – a chance for the North Pole, to
hike across Ellesmere Island or discovering the
extraordinary beauty of a floe-edge trip on Baffin Island.
It’s all here at your fingertips and we at VisitNunavut.com
understand your enthusiasm and aim to bring it alive with a
selection of the best adventures!
Having lived and worked in the north for many
years, the team at VisitNunavut.com are passionate about
exploring Canada North of 60 degrees and through this site
hope we aim to make Nunavut happen for you. Adventure means
different things to different people and visiting Nunuvat is
also about staying at unique lodges like Bathurst Inlet or
Arctic Watch – one of the most northerly lodges in the
world, or travelling to communities like Pangnirtung and
Pond Inlet to discover native culture and art. Alternatively
our Icebreaker voyage can take you to the tip of Ellesmere
Island at about 85 degrees north or by kayak you can paddle
past icebergs or traverse Ellesmere Island on foot. No
matter what your age, any visit to Nunavut is an adventure
to be proud of. Quite simply this is a true frontier, the
like of which there are few left in the world.
