Fury and Hecla Strait in Nunavut stands apart as a cruise port because it offers access to one of the most pristine, least-traveled corners of the Canadian Arctic, where ice, sea, and sky meet in a dramatic, ever-changing canvas. Signature experiences unfold on every voyage: intimate Zodiac excursions through sculpted ice floes and sheltered inlets, guided marine- and bird-watching that reveals polar bears, seals, narwhals, and kittiwakes in their wild habitats, and cultural interactions with Inuit hosts that share stories, carving demonstrations, and traditional songs that deepen the sense of place. Destinations emphasize remote coastal communities and breathtaking landscapes that are reachable only by expedition vessels, with shore visits to wind-swept beaches, ancient trading routes, and panoramic overlooks that reward patience and slow travel. The fleet features purpose-built expedition ships with ice-strengthened hulls, dynamic positioning, and low-emission, fuel-efficient engines, plus multiple Zodiacs, kayaks, and glass-walled lounges that bring guests up close to the Arctic frontiers while preserving the environment. Onboard services center on expertise and comfort: seasoned expedition teams who lead after-desk briefings and guided landings, interactive lectures, robust scientific and conservation programming, and dining that highlights Arctic ingredients and globally influenced flavors, paired with wellness spaces and comfortable lounges to unwind as the strait's light shifts through polar days and long twilights. This combination of wilderness immersion, Indigenous hospitality, and shipboard sophistication sets Fury and Hecla Strait apart from any other cruise port and invites travelers to experience the Arctic as a living, transforming destination rather than a checklist of sights.
