Rigolet Harbour, New Foundland, Canada.

Rigolet is a remote, coastal Labrador Inuit community established in 1735 by French-Canadian trader Louis Fornel. Located on Hamilton Inlet, which is at the entrance to fresh water Lake Melville; Rigolet is on salt water and is accessible to navigation during the winter. Rigolet is the southern most Inuit community in the world.

Minke whales and pods of seals are often seen as ships pass from the sea to the narrow channel. Photo opportunities abound as it is not unusual to see whales feeding right off the dock. Boat tours, village walking tours and a visit to the old Hudson Bay company Net Loft are easily arranged, and artisans there are skilled in the exquisite craft of grass sewing which has been practiced for centuries in Labrador.
