Days 4 to 8: CAMP ON THE SEA ICE
From the camp, you’ll head out on excursions by snowmobile and Inuit sled across the sea ice, flanked by pressure ridges up to 3 metres high.

You’ll experience remarkable moments while taking in this extraordinary display of Arctic nature. Along the way, you’ll take in the magnificent landscape and observe immense icebergs. These serve as a source of fresh water and an unrivalled playground for polar bears and their cubs.
Keep your camera within reach – the unexpected can happen at any moment…

The itinerary is determined each day according to weather conditions. A hot lunch is served during the safari, and dinner is taken at camp. You’ll sleep in a comfortable tent, fitted with a heating system and tall enough to stand up in.
