It is from here that we can provide you with the best possibilities on the planet with regards to encountering polar bear mothers and their adorable cubs.
This unique convergence of ecosystems, nourished by the Hudson Bay coastal waters, is home to polar bears, black bears, wolves, moose; a diverse array of other wildlife, flora, and fauna; and a remarkable diversity of bird species. Being uniquely located on the migration flyway, the massive flocks filling the air at the commencement of the fall migration can be awe-inspiring.
The Hudson Bay Odyssey involves daily treks through the pristine terrain of the Cape Tatnam Wildlife Management Area, where you will be provided with once-in-a-lifetime photo opportunities, particularly during fall excursions when brilliant colors are on display.
The lodge features a new dining and lounge area with large picture windows overlooking the magnificent Hudson Bay, a warm and cozy home base which we can unequivocally say provides the best Arctic luxury around! And keep your camera ready to go, as it is not uncommon to have wildlife pay a visit to the Lodge!
Witnessing the maternal instincts of polar bears is a life-defining experience, and while this access cannot be guaranteed, there is no better place on earth to increase your chances of observing this behavior than at this lodge, where we have consistently encountered mothers and cubs. You will be forever changed by your Hudson Bay Odyssey experience, and awed by the ease in which bears, wolves and other species flourish in an unforgiving circle of life. We invite you to join us, on an adventure to remember!
