Kaipokok Bay is a bay in Labrador, Canada, that extends for 56 kilometres (35 mi) inland from the northern Atlantic Ocean. The bay is sparsely populated, with Postville being the only permanent settlement. Several trading posts existed along the bay until the 1950s. This includes the former settlement of Kaipokok, where the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) operated a trading post from 1837 to 1880.
