Description

The channels of the Arctic archipelago have forever been peaceful, locked in ice and silent. Today, these waters are being navigated by cruising boats filled with tourists as polar tourism becomes increasingly more popular. The sea traffic in the Far North is likely to become more important with the forthcoming opening of Northwest Passage and the Arctic bridge project between Murmansk and Churchill.
