Polar Bears in Hudson Bay, Churchill

There are 8 living species of bears found on the continents of North America, South America, Europe, and Asia.

Some species can be dangerous to humans, especially in areas where they are not used to people.

The truth is that it is sometimes possible to see these magnificent animals without a guide, but most of the time a guided excursion is the best way to ensure a safe and successful experience of seeing bears in their natural habitat.

Precisely, in Canada, there are two excellent destinations to see these fantastic animals:

Knight inlet

Knight Inlet is located in the southern section of the Bear Rainforest, just 125 kilometers north of Vancouver, where it is possible to see the most popular Grizzly bears in British Columbia.

Knight Inlet is one of the few places in North America where these normally solitary animals congregate in large numbers.

Churchill

Churchill is a small town on the shores of Hudson Bay in Canada. Due to the many polar bears that move towards the coast from the interior in the fall, it is nicknamed "The Polar Bear Capital of the World."

Tourists can safely view polar bears from specially modified buses known as tundra buggies. It should be noted that November is the best time to see polar bears, especially in Hudson Bay.
