Marvel at the gorgeous fjords, landscapes ablaze with autumn colours, and wonderful wildlife sighting opportunities, including the possibility of both polar and black bears.
Travel to one of the least-visited coastlines in the country—the Torngats are simply unbeatable!
Some of the tallest mountains in Canada east of the Rockies form the backdrop to this national park, the only one initiated and staffed entirely by Inuit.
Cross the Arctic Circle
Enjoy the stunning mountain scenery of Kangerlussuaq Fjord (Søndre Strømfjord) as you sail south from Kangerlussuaq to Baffin Bay.
At 190 kilometres in length, this incredible waterway showcases some of Greenland’s finest scenery.
Enjoy your special moment of crossing the Arctic Circle, catch a glimpse of the Greenland ice cap, and watch for Northern Lights above the mountain peaks.
Visit Nuuk, Greenland’s intriguing capital
Take your time to wander the city of Nuuk, which offers a fascinating glimpse into Greenland’s history—and future.
Enjoy the bustle of activity at the art galleries, cafés, and restaurants that possess a strong Scandinavian influence in their design, architecture, and flavours.
Look a little closer and you will see modern Inuit artworks and historic buildings from the whaling era dotting the streets, too.
Be sure to visit the excellent museum, offering a deep dive into the fascinating history and culture of Greenland.
Enjoy a warm Inuit welcome in Nain, capital of Nunatsiavut
Journey to lovely Labrador, where few have had the pleasure of going; fewer still have carried onwards to Nunatsiavut, the Inuit region of which Nain is the administrative capital.
Stop in at the historic Moravian church, enjoy the vibrant musical tradition, and peruse plenty of art and handicrafts that await you.
Adventure Canada has a family connection here and you can expect a very warm welcome.

Itinerary



Day 1 - Day 1: Kangerlussuaq, GL
Kangerlussuaq is a former US Air Force base and Greenland’s primary flight hub. Here we will be transferred by Zodiac to the Ocean Endeavour. With 168 kilometres of superb scenery, Søndre Strømfjord is one of the longest fjords in the world. We begin our adventure by sailing down this dramatic fjord, crossing the Arctic Circle southbound as we go spending time on deck watching for aurora borealis.
Day 2 - Day 2: Kangerlussuaq Fjord
West Greenland’s complex coastal waterways include glaciers, islands, and fjords against a towering mountain backdrop. The waters are relatively warm here, due to the West Greenland Current and the sub-Arctic location. We’ll explore this sublime landscape by ship and by Zodiac.
Day 3 - Day 3: Nuuk
Nuuk, the capital of Greenland, bridges old and new. The old harbour region of town includes many buildings dating from the Danish colonial days. Nuuk is known for great art, shopping, and cafes. The Greenland National Museum is one of Nuuk’s many outstanding features; the world-famous Qilakitsoq mummies are housed here.
Day 4 - Day 4: At Sea — Davis Strait
Our onboard presentation series will continue as we steam across Davis Strait towards Canada. This is an excellent time to enjoy workshops, watch a documentary, and get out on deck looking for whales, seabirds and marine wildlife.
Day 5 - Days 5-7: Torngat Mountains National Park, NL, Canada
Canada’s highest peaks east of the Rockies are found in Torngat Mountains National Park. Here, the Inuit of Nunatsiavut will be our guides in their spiritual homeland. Polar bears, black bears, caribou, falcons, and eagles are among the species we hope to spot. We’ll also be on the lookout for marine mammals. We’ll spend our time hiking, searching for wildlife, visiting archaeological sites, and Zodiac cruising.
Day 6 - Day 8: Hebron
This haunting site preserves a Moravian Mission station dating from the 1830s. The mission was abandoned in 1959, forcing the relocation of the Inuit who resided there. In 2005, Newfoundland & Labrador issued an apology to people affected by the relocations. Former Hebron residents and their kin continue to visit the site, and to hunt and fish nearby.
Day 7 - Day 9: Nain
The administrative capital of Nunatsiavut, Nain is the most northerly community in Labrador. We’ll visit Illusuak, the stunning new cultural centre, and the beautiful Moravian Church among other community highlights. We always enjoy a warm cultural welcome. Expect music, food, and handicrafts at this dynamic visit.
Day 8 - Day 10-12: Labrador Coast
Along the Labrador coast we find coastal barrens, high subarctic tundra, high boreal forest, mid-boreal forest, and string bog. The area is dotted with islands and we'll select a landing based on the conditions of the day.
Day 9 - Day 13: L’Anse aux Meadows
L’Anse aux Meadows is the only authenticated Norse settlement in North America—a UNESCO World Heritage Site and National Historic site. The archaeological remains found here in 1960 date to approximately 1,000 AD. Today, a superb interpretive centre and several reconstructed Norse-style sod buildings evoke the spirit of the Viking voyages.
Day 10 - Day 14: Northeast Newfoundland
The east coast of Newfoundland is known for the dozens of picturesque villages that dot its rocky shores. We’ll find harbour in one of these unique communities. We look forward to a characteristically warm Newfoundland welcome upon our arrival. Photographers will have their work cut out for them capturing the special charm of classic island communities and picturesque coastlines.
Day 11 - Day 15: St. John’s, NL
Sailing into the port of St. John’s has to be experienced to be believed. Watch for locals waving from Signal Hill as we take on our pilot and enter the world-famous Narrows to North America's oldest city. The colourful houses of The Battery are always a hit with shutterbugs! Today we disembark the Ocean Endeavour. We will say our farewells and the expedition team will be on hand to assist you with luggage and transportation arrangements.
Day 12 - Please Note:
The itineraries/programs described are subject to change at the discretion of the ship’s master.
