Exploring Churchill’s Polar Bear Kingdom
Craig Traveller Carroll Graham took the plunge into one of the most extraordinary wildlife experiences on the planet—the Churchill Polar Bear Adventure. Reflecting on the journey, she described it as deeply moving:
"Watching these powerful yet vulnerable creatures in their natural habitat was a humbling experience—one that truly puts nature’s delicate balance into perspective. These bears are living on the fat they stored from last winter’s feed of seals, and one can only hope that the freeze occurs sooner rather than later. I was impressed with the care and protection being taken in the area to safeguard these wonderful beasts."
It’s no surprise that Churchill, Manitoba is known as the Polar Bear Capital of the World—it’s one of the best places on the planet to see these magnificent creatures in their natural habitat. But that’s not all. Churchill is also a top destination for beluga whale watching, an absolute paradise for birders, and one of the most breathtaking spots to witness the northern lights.
