Ours polaires et glaciers sur l'île de Baffin

This safari takes you through the spectacular and rarely visited landscapes of eastern Baffin Island. Glacier-covered coastlines, majestic mountain peaks and dazzling icebergs form a striking backdrop, while the midnight sun casts a glow both day and night.

This expedition offers the chance to observe polar bears and bowhead whales, taste fresh Arctic char, kayak on Baffin Island's glacier-fed lakes, visit Auyuittuq National Park, and pick wild Arctic blueberries.

Day 2 03/04/2025
After breakfast, we travel to camp by snowmobile and qamutik (a traditional wooden Inuit sled with suspended or foam-padded seats, towed behind a snowmobile). We travel over sea ice, and although suspension seats have been added to the qamutiks for a smoother ride, the farther into the season we go, the bumpier the ride can be.
You will experience the thrill of gliding over the ice. You'll get a first glimpse of deep fjords carved by glaciers, icebergs frozen in place forming imposing pillars, and chances to spot wildlife along the way to camp. Arrival at camp before dinner to settle in and enjoy a tour of the facilities to get comfortable right away.
MEALS INCLUDED: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
