Located at the entrance to Sirmilik National Park, this community is sandwiched between ocean and mountain environments. The tundra here harbours birds that are not found regularly farther south: Common Ringed Plover, Purple Sandpiper, Red Knot, Rock Ptarmigan and more. Out at the floe edge, we have a chance to see all three species of jaeger, and possibly even Ivory Gull. More regular species are Thick-billed Murre, Black-legged Kittiwake, and King and Common Eider.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMammals are common here, with narwhal, polar bear, Ringed and Bearded Seals being the most likely. Beluga Whales are also possible. The action is focused at the floe edge, where the “fast ice” ends and is brushed by chunks—some large, some small—of moving floe ice driven by wind and rich upwelling currents. Normally, we sit very close to the edge and wait for wildlife to pass by, however we are reminded to turn and face back toward land from time to time to marvel at the peaks and glaciers at the flanks of Admiralty Inlet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis tour involves comfortable camping on the ice and we get you there directly upon arrival, so you waste no time seeing all the floe edge has to offer!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Eagle-Eye Tours","offers":[{"title":"Jun 9 - 15, 2024","offer_id":42687322292424,"sku":"Narwhals_PB_AB_Jun_9_2024","price":1000.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Jun 16 - 22, 2024","offer_id":42738296946888,"sku":"PB-Narwhals-AB-Jun-16-2024","price":1000.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/7964\/1800\/files\/ABA-03_cc8f04ca-292b-418c-b0e1-5e635133b082.jpg?v=1722458283","url":"https:\/\/cad.eagle-eye.com\/products\/narwhals-polar-bears-arctic-bay","provider":"Eagle-Eye Tours ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
