Narwhal Photography on the Northwest Passage

Led by the team at Weber Arctic, embark to photograph one of the most unique marine mammals on earth – the narwhal. Dubbed the “Unicorn of the sea”, these shy, docile animals congregate in an area near Arctic Watch to feed on Arctic char every late summer. This expedition is limited to four guests annually. Eight hundred kilometres north of the Arctic Circle, Arctic Watch Wilderness Lodge is your basecamp as you set out to photograph these unique animals. Supported by our lodge’s helicopter, we visit/hike the shorelines of the shallow inlets where these whales feed on schools of fish. Four days of helicopter assist are provided for the endeavour while two days on foot to photograph other animals on Somerset such as polar bears, muskoxen, arctic foxes, snowy owls and more.
