Gulf of Boothia

The Gulf of Boothia /ˈbuːθiə/ is a body of water in Nunavut, Canada.

It merges north into Prince Regent Inlet, the two forming a single bay with different names for its parts.

In 1822, it was seen by some of William Edward Parry's men, who went on foot along the ice-choked Fury and Hecla Strait.

In 1829, it was entered by John Ross, who was frozen in for four years and named it for his patron Sir Felix Booth.
