Nanisivik Naval Facility Heliport serves Nanisivik, CA.
The Nanisivik Naval Facility Heliport (CA-0733) is a private, military-operated helicopter landing facility located within the Nanisivik Naval Facility in Nanisivik, Nunavut, Canada. It is primarily operated by the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) to support its Arctic/Offshore Patrol Ships and other government vessels, including those of the Canadian Coast Guard (CCG), during the navigable season.
The heliport is described as a large, marked, and obstruction-free flat area situated at the north end of an existing concrete slab. It is an integral part of the broader Nanisivik Naval Facility, which includes unheated fuel storage tanks for ships and helicopters, a site office, a wharf operator's shelter, and an unheated storage building. The facility, located on Baffin Island, serves as a docking and refuelling station and is connected to Arctic Bay and its airport by a 40-kilometer road. It is intended for seasonal use, typically for approximately four to five weeks annually, due to challenges with unheated fuel tanks and ground movement caused by permafrost. The facility has experienced extensive delays in becoming fully operational.
