Clyde Inlet

Clyde Inlet () is a body of water in Nunavut's Qikiqtaaluk Region. It is a westerly flowing arm of Davis Strait in eastern Baffin Island.

At one time, Clyde Inlet was a 120 km (75 mi) long fiord.[1] There are several fiords in the area now, including Inugsuin Fiord and McBeth Fiord, as well as un-named islands.

The Inuit community of Clyde River is located on the inlet's Patricia Bay.
