Cruises visiting Pond Inlet, Nunavut

In northern Canada, on Baffin Island, at the entrance to the legendary Northwest Passage, lies a small Inuit hamlet where the first inhabitants settled around 4,000 years ago, giving it the name Mittimatalik. Today, the community is home to approximately 1,500 residents, many of whom still work as trappers and hunters, maintaining a way of life that remains closely connected to the surrounding wildlife. What sets the people of Pond Inlet apart is not so much their daily life as their extraordinary natural environment, nestled within these far northern latitudes. To reach this remote outpost, you will cross Baffin Bay from Greenland to Canada, with Pond Inlet serving as the administrative port of entry where immigration and customs formalities will be completed.
