Arctic
If you like to be surrounded by wildlife in amazing scenery then
head to the unspoilt wilderness of the Arctic. Polar Bears and
walruses idle their days away on the blue ice, puffins and terns
fill the skies, whales and narwhals swim along the currents below.

The largest island in the Canadian Arctic, Baffin is sparsely populated. The majority of human activity is centred around Iqaluit, capital of the recently created territory of Nunavut. The island can be circumnavigated in approximately two weeks. The coastline is rugged with many fjords, glaciers and expansive bays. Inland much of the mountainous terrain has been granted national park status. Caribou and Polar Bears roam the colourful tundra. Narwhals and Beluga Whales swim amongst the nutrient rich waters and nestling amongst the towering cliffs, seabirds such as Atlantic Puffins, kittiwakes and Arctic Turns are often seen.
