I am often asked if the snow ever melts in Iqaluit. Yes! We get summer just like the rest of the northern hemiphere. The days are long. It never really gets dark out in June and July. 20 hours of daylight and 4 hours of twilight. The temperatures can reach to over 20 degrees Celcius but an average summer day is 12C or around 55F. Above you can see a popular camp site along a tidal beach. The tides can be up to 12 meters. The beach sits at the end of a small inlet that fills and empties with the tides.
