Overview
Experience the extraordinary scenery and Inuit culture of Greenland’s captivating coastline. This trip along the striking and sparsely populated east coast of Greenland may begin and end in the village of Kulusuk, but everything in between is truly an exploration. Depending on weather and sea conditions, each voyage of this adventure will offer something new and different.
The itinerary may include visiting the big Sermilik ice-fjord, walking the streets of Tasiilaq, cruising the channels and sounds between Tiniteqilaq, Kummiut, and Sermiligaq, and exploring the abandoned Bluie East 2 military base from World War II.
In the late summer and early autumn, the northern lights can be spectacular, and as winter approaches, there may be fresh snow on the mountaintops. This outing is suitable for people of all ages and varying interests.
