About Coral Harbour Airport
Coral Harbour Airport is the only airport serving Coral Harbour, known in Inuktitut as Salliq, on Southampton Island in Nunavut's Kivalliq Region. Operated by the Government of Nunavut, it provides an essential air link for this remote fly-in community at the entrance to Hudson Bay.
The airport sits about 11 km northwest of the community and has a single gravel runway and a small passenger terminal. Calm Air International connects Coral Harbour with Rankin Inlet, the regional hub, where travellers can continue to other Nunavut communities and onward destinations.
Because there are no roads connecting Southampton Island to the mainland, air travel is central to moving people and goods. Local taxis provide transfers between the airport and the community, and travellers can arrange private transport for the short drive.
With basic passenger amenities and year-round Eastern Standard Time without daylight saving time, the airport is a small but important regional gateway for residents and visitors to this part of Nunavut.
