Tellik Bay is a remote coastal inlet on the southern coast of Baffin Island, Nunavut, situated near the community of Cape Dorset. The bay is formed by the eastern branch of Tellik Inlet, which separates Mallik Island from an unnamed island to the northwest. This is a high-Arctic marine environment characterized by dramatic tides, exposed rocky shorelines, and significant navigational challenges. The waters are generally not surveyed to modern standards, and the area is noted for its drying reefs, shoals, and rocky outcrops, demanding extreme caution and local knowledge for any maritime activity, including fishing. The landscape is dominated by a ridge of sand, rock, and boulders rising over 700 feet in the southern part of the area.

Key fishing structure includes the drying reefs located 0.5 mile inside Tellik Inlet and the two prominent drying rocks at the inlet's entrance. The channels and drop-offs around these reefs and shoals are natural congregation points for fish. The confluence where the west branch of Tellik Inlet joins West Inlet may also create productive current seams. The deeper waters of the main bay basin adjacent to these structures are worth prospecting.
