Navy Board Inlet

Navy Board Inlet is a body of water in Nunavut's Qikiqtaaluk Region. It is an arm of Lancaster Sound, after which it proceeds southerly before it empties into Eclipse Sound. It is 113 km (70 mi) long and 10 to 29 km (6.2 to 18.0 mi) wide.

The inlet separates Baffin Island to the west from Bylot Island to the east, making it part of the Sirmilik National Park. There are a few islands within Navy Board Inlet, including the Wollaston Islands.

Navy Board Inlet was first discovered by Admiral Sir Edward Parry in 1819.

Navy Board Inlet is the setting for Rudyard Kipling's story "Quiquern", in The Second Jungle Book.
