Bowdoin Fjord runs in a roughly north–south direction with its mouth west of
Cape Milne and 15 km west of
Cape Ackland, in the northern shore of the middle reaches of the
Inglefield Gulf.
Piulip Nunaa is the peninsula that separates this fjord from
MacCormick Fjord to the west and northwest; Bowdoin Fjord forms its eastern coastline. To the east lies
Prudhoe Land. There is an
Inuit settlement on the western shore of the fjord roughly 3 km north of
Cape Tyrconnel. The
Bowdoin Glacier discharges from the
Greenland Ice Sheet at the head of the Bowdoin Fjord. ==See also==
