Cape Dorset, or Kinngait in Inuktitut, is located on the mountainous Foxe Peninsula on West Baffin Island. The community of about 1250 residents has come to be known as the Inuit art capital of the world. The Mallikjuaq Historic Park Visitors Centre contains displays on both Dorset and Mallikjuaq Islands. Tourists can take a boat to Mallikjuaq Island or hike there at low tide. The archeological sites at Mallikjuaq Territorial Historic Park are easy to reach and can be explored in half a day. There are several interesting hikes on Dorset Island. The waterfall route takes visitors from the south edge of town past a little waterfall to the beach. The pipeline route goes to T Lake, the source of Cape Dorset's drinking water, and then winds up into the hills to a lookout giving a view of the south end of Dorset Island and Hudson Strait. Another hike takes them east to Apalooktook Point. Guides will show them archeological sites on the island such as Thule houses, caches and burial sites. Wildlife is plentiful in the summer. They may see caribou, Arctic hare, peregrine falcons, snowy owls, ptarmigan and ducks. Seals may appear at any time and beluga whale migrate through the area in October and April. The Co-operative sales outlet is located in the stonecut studio and is open year-round. Visitors can purchase soapstone, bone and marble carvings, etchings, lithographic prints and postcards. Printmakers work in the studio from September until June, taking time off in the summer. At the Natsiq Sewing Centre tourists can have traditional clothing such as sealskin kamiks (boots) custom-made. There are two other sewing groups in the community. Information on these sewing groups can be obtained from the hamlet office.
