Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Nanisivik?
The best area to stay in Nanisivik is in the nearby community of Arctic Bay, as Nanisivik itself no longer has accommodation options for travellers.

Arctic Bay is a small, welcoming Inuit hamlet located on the northern coast of Baffin Island, just a short distance from the former Nanisivik mine site. It's known for its stunning Arctic landscape, including soaring mountains and a deep-water port often used by cruise ships and research vessels. The community is centred around its harbour, with most services and homes clustered along the shore.

For those interested in experiencing Inuit culture and the natural beauty of the High Arctic, Arctic Bay is an excellent choice. Travellers can learn about local traditions, observe Arctic wildlife like polar bears and narwhals, and participate in activities such as dog sledding or snowmobiling, depending on the season.
When is the best time to go to Nanisivik?
The best time to go to Nanisivik depends heavily on the type of experience you're seeking, with the short summer months offering the most accessibility and activities.

For those looking to experience the Arctic at its most accessible and "mildest," late June to mid-August is ideal. During this period, the ice has largely melted, allowing for easier travel by sea and air. You'll experience 24 hours of daylight, which is great for wildlife viewing, hiking, and exploring the landscape. This is also when most organised tours and expeditions operate, offering the best chance to see polar bears, whales, and migratory birds.

Travellers interested in winter activities and the Northern Lights should consider late February to early April. While significantly colder and darker, this period offers opportunities for dog sledding, snowmobiling, and ice fishing. The long nights provide excellent conditions for viewing the aurora borealis, a truly spectacular natural phenomenon.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
You can cancel your hotel reservation on Expedia, though it depends on the cancellation policy of your booking. Most bookings are refundable if canceled within 24-48 hours of the scheduled arrival. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. If free cancellation is available, you can cancel directly through your Expedia account by logging in, going to "My Trips", and selecting your reservation.
