The lights of the aurora borealis may begin quietly, with the appearance of a faint glow, then intensify in size and color, shimmering and dancing across the sky. This natural light show is truly an experience no photo or video can fully capture. Off the western shore of the Hudson Bay, Churchill’s location makes it one of the best places on Earth to view the Northern Lights.
