Eenoolooapik (c. 1820 – 1847) was an Inuk guide. Eenoolooapik travelled to Britain in 1839 with Captain William Penny. He attracted considerable attention from the local population; when he contracted pneumonia, his health was tracked by the local media. He presented his map of Cumberland Sound to the British Navy in an effort to garner support for Penny's proposed expedition to the region. The proposal was denied, but Eenoolooapik nevertheless supported Penny in rediscovering Cumberland Sound in 1840. His sister Taqulittuq was also a guide, while his brother Totocatapik was a noted voyager.
