Locally known as Arviligjuaqy, meaning “the great bowhead whale habitat,” Kugaaruk—formerly known as Pelly Bay—is located on the Simpson Peninsula, south of the Gulf of Boothia. Between the bay and the coastal mountains, you’ll find the Inukshuk Hotel sitting on the tundra amongst the rest of the Koomiut Co-op. Here you can see the Inukshuk, photograph Arctic animals in their natural habitat, visit historic campsites where ancient Inuit hunted and fished, and book a guided kayaking tour.

Traditional Indigenous Dwellings
Traditional Indigenous accommodations were a sophisticated response to each community’s unique natural environment and lifestyle. Although contemporary Indigenous Peoples in Canada live in modern housing, our traditional dwellings can provide important insight into how we used to live.
