Clyde River, known to the Inuit as Kangiqtugaapik or “nice little inlet”, is located on the eastern shore of Baffin Island in the shelter of Patricia Bay. Surrounded by spectacular fiords that reach the Barnes Icecap, the area attracts rock and ice climbers globally. The region is also home to diverse wildlife, including caribou, narwhals, and other sea mammals. The Iqalirtuuq National Wildlife Area, a protected bowhead whale sanctuary, is located in Patricia Bay. (~Government of Nunavut)
