A faint glow appears on the horizon. Slowly, soft curtains of color shimmer across the northern sky. The colors bend and weave and slowly begin to fade. The night sky darkens again. You have just witnessed a display of awe inspiring Aurora Borealis (the Northern Lights).
Northern Lights, Winter NightsJoin us on a rare journey across arctic waters to experience the wildlife and people of the true north. Aboard an expedition class ship, you’ll sail on Hudson Bay as the early explorers did. You’ll meet with local Inuit as we travel to this remote, virtually undiscovered part of the world.
Hudson Strait Expedition CruisesIce break-up in spring brings droves of beluga whales to the Churchill River. The beluga whales enjoy the summer months of July and August in the Churchill River where the river water is warmer than the ocean water and the whales are able to feed on crustaceans.
