Mill Island is a cool, quiet island in the Arctic part of Canada. It's a place where no people live, making it a true wilderness spot! You can find it in Hudson Bay, which is a very large body of water.
Where is Mill Island?
Mill Island is located in a special area of Canada called Nunavut. This territory is known for its vast, icy landscapes and amazing wildlife. The island sits between two important waterways: the Foxe Channel and the Hudson Strait.
If you look on a map, you'll see Mill Island south of a big piece of land called the Foxe Peninsula, which is part of Baffin Island. To its north are two other islands, Nottingham and Salisbury islands. Mill Island is part of the Qikiqtaaluk Region within Nunavut.
Nearby Islands
Mill Island isn't all alone! There are a couple of smaller islands close by.
- Putnam Island: This island is smaller than Mill Island and is less than a kilometre away. It's located off the east coast of Mill Island.
- Unnamed Island: There's also another small island off the west coast of Mill Island. It's separated from Mill Island by a narrow channel of water called Hurin Throughlet.
These smaller islands add to the wild and natural beauty of the area around Mill Island.
