Cambridge Bay, or Iqaluktuuttiaq as called Inuinnaqtun, is an active small town positioned on Victoria Island in Nunavut's Kitikmeot Region. Due to its large population, it functions as an administrative center and transportation center that links the Arctic region to the other parts of Canada. Cambridge Bay has its characteristic features in that it has archaeological features all over its vicinity dating back thousands of years revealing how the primitive Inuit people lived.
This is coupled with an active cultural engagement because people inhabit this community and are involved in a majority of economic activities like hunting, fishing, and trapping, but also enjoy services and technology. The primary reason why Cambridge Bay has strategic importance and much scientific research has taken place there is because of its position along the Northwest Passage, which is a shipping route in the Arctic.
Cambridge Bay is ideal for such gorgeous arctic terrains. Pretty much everything one would expect from arctic landscapes such as cliffs dropping to the sea, endless tundra, and interesting species can be found. People come to this part of the region whether it is the sight of musk oxen grazing on the tundra or the days that sunlight for summer antics never sets or when you have to sit indoors because of beautiful yet harsh winters filled with northern lights. Classical Cambridge Bay is the place where the past and the present coexist in harmony and where people tend to enjoy living as well as visiting.
