Fjords carved deeper than anywhere else on the continent, narwhals and polar bears sharing the same stretch of Arctic water, and an Inuit culture that still runs on the land the way it always has.

The best time to visit Iqaluit & Baffin Island is Jul–Aug, or Feb–Mar, when typical daytime highs reach about 10°C (50°F).
