Hamilton Inlet

Hamilton Inlet (recorded on the ferry between Cartwright and Happy Valley / Goose Bay )

Hamilton Inlet is the name of a fjord or fjärdartigen bay on the coast of Labrador in the Canadian province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Together with Lake Melville, it forms the largest estuary of this province, which extends over 140 kilometers inland to the town of Happy Valley- Goose Bay. It drains the river systems of the Churchill River and the Naskaupi River.

The Lake Melville is considered a part of the Hamilton Inlet; it extends west of the deep and narrow passage near the municipality of Rigolet.

In 1586, here the expedition of John Davis was attacked by Inuit, which killed two members of the expedition and others wounded.
