Bernard Harbour (Inuit: Nulahugiuq)[1] is a bay on the mainland of Nunavut, Canada. It is situated on Dolphin and Union Strait, southwest of Sutton Island.

At one time, it was the site of a Hudson's Bay Company trading post. It is also a former Distant Early Warning Line (PIN-C) and current North Warning System site.[2] As of August 2004, there were several abandoned structures remaining at the site.[3]

The harbour is well sheltered and can accommodate ships up to 6.1 m (20 ft) in draught.[4]

The butterfly Colias johanseni is found in the area.[5]

The Hudson's Bay Company vessel Aklavik over-wintered at Bernard Harbour, in 1930, where she sank.[6] She was refloated and repaired.

The closest inhabited community is Kugluktuk, about 100 km (62 mi) south of Bernard Harbour.
