The best and most recommended time to visit are in summer.

ANIMAL SPECIES Artic wolves Barren-ground grizzlies Caribou

Activities Boat Tours & Hiking Ukkusiksalik National Park includes and surrounds Wager Bay, so the best way to experience it is by boat with a licensed outfitter. Parks Canada strongly recommends that visitors only tour the park with a licensed guide, due to the extremely high density of polar bears. It is not uncommon for visitors to see polar bears daily during their visit.  Visitors to the park come to hike, boat and view wildlife during the brief arctic summer.

The park has a lodge that provides a safe place to stay when in polar bear country. The Inuit use the region to hunt and fish. The Hudson's Bay Company traded in the area (1925-47), and remains of their buildings can be seen at Ford Lake at the west end of Wager Bay.
