Pond Inlet, Inuit settlement in Qikiqtaaluk Region, Canada

Located at the northern tip of Baffin Island, Pond Inlet faces Eclipse Sound and the mountains of Bylot Island at 55 meters above sea level.

The Hudson's Bay Company established a trading post near the Inuit camp in 1921, marking the expansion of trade activities in the High Arctic region.

The Tununiq Arsarniit Theatre Group, founded in 1987, produces performances incorporating traditional Inuit language, stories, and customs for the local community.

The settlement experiences extreme temperatures ranging from 5°C to 15°C in summer and dropping to -40°C during winter months with no sunlight.

The location provides opportunities to observe narwhals, belugas, orcas, seals, caribou, arctic foxes, and polar bears in their natural Arctic environment.
