Coral Harbour - Transportation

Transportation

The only way to reach this community is by plane at Coral Harbour Airport or by water (such as the resupply barges that come from Churchill, Manitoba every summer) and the main transportation on the island itself (nearly the same size as Switzerland) is by snowmobile and dog sleigh in the winter and all-terrain vehicle in the summer. Despite the harsh climate there is plentiful wildlife around the island. Among some of the species found there are Walruses, Polar bears, Barren-ground Caribou, Ringed Seals, Gyrfalcons, and (rarely) Peregrine Falcons.
