It opens south into Hudson Bay. Its north end joins Repulse Bay which is connected east through Frozen Strait to Foxe Basin, thereby making Southampton Island an island. Wager Bay is a western branch. It is situated {{convert|200|km|abbr=on}} north of Marble Island.[1] Roes Welcome Sound measures {{convert|290|km|abbr=on}} long, and {{convert|24|to|113|km|abbr=on}} wide.[2] In 1613 it was reached by Thomas Button who called it 'Ne Ultra'. It is named after Sir Thomas Roe, friend and sponsor of explorer Luke Fox's 1631 Arctic voyage.[3][4] Capt. Parry, trying to find the Northwest Passage during his 1821 voyage, wrote:[5] "On an inspection of the charts, I think it will also appear probable that a communication will one day be found to exist between this inlet (Prince Regent's) and Hudson's Bay, either through the broad and unexplored channel called Sir Thomas Roe's Welcome, or through Repulse Bay, which has not yet been satisfactorily examined." Roes Welcome Sound is a bowhead whale migratory path.[6] References1. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.marbleisland.ca/history03.html |title=Marble Island, experience the mystery |accessdate=2008-04-09 |publisher=marbleisland.ca}} {{Sounds of Nunavut}}{{Authority control}}{{KivalliqNU-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.bartleby.com/69/72/R03972.html |title=Roes Welcome Sound |accessdate=2008-04-09 |publisher=The Columbia Gazetteer of North America |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20050510193903/http://bartleby.com/69/72/R03972.html |archivedate=2005-05-10 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://libweb5.princeton.edu/visual_materials/maps/websites/northwest-passage/james-foxe.htm |title=Thomas James and Luke Foxe |accessdate=2008-04-09 |publisher=princeton.edu}} 4. ^{{cite web |url=http://www.google.com/search?q=Since+Fox+penetrated+to+the+western+part+of+Hudson+Bay%2C+discovering+the+strait+and+shore+known+as+%22Sir+Thomas+Roe%27s+%281581+%3F-1644%29+Welcome%2C%22+it+seems+likely+...&btnG=Search&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&hs=Qg4 |title=JSTOR: The History of American Ornithology before Audubon |accessdate=2008-04-09 }} 5. ^{{cite book |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=aJEBAAAAYAAJ&dq=%22Roe's+welcome%22 |title=Arctic explorations and discoveries during the nineteenth century.
