Baffin Island-Polar Bears and Narwhal Whales

Baffin Island

If you are seeking an adventure involving polar bears and whales, you will find the ultimate experience on Baffin Island and Bylot Island. The wilderness experience involves luxury tents with heat and proper toilet facilities along the ice floe edge.

Polar Bear

There is an eco system with thriving wildlife, including the unique narwhal whales (called the unicorn whale because they have a single tusk), polar bears, many species of seals, birds and the most pristine and surreal setting with a mountain backdrop. Unique vehicles “slide” you into the area and Inuit guides tell you stories and help you get acquainted with the animals and the park.  If you are longing to get off the beaten track, I am sure there is an experience ahead for you.
