This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bathurst Inlet, Nunavut. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Bathurst Inlet.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Bathurst Inlet is a locality in Nunavut, Canada. It is classified as a large city. Bathurst Inlet is located at 66.8389°N, 108.0486°W.
Bathurst Inlet holds its position along the Arctic coast, defined by the rugged character of the Bathurst Ridge and the persistent movement of the Burnside River. It lies 95.4 km south of Umingmaktok, NU (from Umingmaktok, NU: bearing 183°T), and is situated 282.1 km south-south-west of Cambridge Bay. The land here possesses a stark, mineral clarity, where the light at dusk stretches thin and sharp across the stones, revealing the deep, ancient patience of the northern terrain. The horizon is rarely static, shifting with the subtle play of shadows that lengthen across the ridges, turning the earth into a vast, silent witness to the changing seasons. The history of Bathurst Inlet remains inseparable from the movement of people who have long navigated these waterways and coastal fringes. Economic life has historically leaned toward traditional harvesting and the seasonal rhythms of the land, with the Burnside River serving as a vital artery for those who know how to read its currents. The silence of the region is punctuated only by the wind and the occasional call of life, a quiet industry that requires a keen attunement to the capabilities of the environment. Surviving here demands a practical knowledge of the terrain, where the cold is not merely a condition but a constant, shaping presence in the daily lives of those who inhabit the inlet. Cultural identity in Bathurst Inlet emerges from a profound connection to the surrounding expanse, grounded in an enduring Indigenous heritage that respects the demands of the Arctic climate. The presence of Burnside Falls, located 12 km away, offers a singular, thunderous landmark that anchors the geography of the surrounding wilderness. Life here proceeds with a deliberate focus, finding beauty in the way the air turns crisp and crystalline before the onset of winter. There is a distinct, unadorned integrity to the way time passes in Bathurst Inlet, where the landscape demands total attention and rewards it with a solitude that feels both heavy and light.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data for Bathurst Inlet is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
