Excursion Fjord Boat Tour GOH 004 11:15-1:15. $209. Embark on an adventure with the Fjord Boat Tour, immersing yourself in the breathtaking natural beauty of Greenland's waters.
• Look for humpback whales and other wildlife while cruising through a nearby fjord.
• Continue to Sermitsiaq (weather permitting), a mountainous island where melting snow produces plunging waterfalls and cascades.
Cruise into the beautiful Nuup Kangerlua fjord to look for humpback whales, which usually frequent these waters to feed and often breach the surface in acrobatic displays. As you approach uninhabited Sermitsiaq Island in the fjord, you will see a saddle-shaped mountain rising from the island’s heart. When the weather warms and the snow and glaciers melt, a waterfall usually thunders off the mountain and into the crystal-clear waters of the fjord below. It is quite the sight, as is the wildlife that typically frequents this area. On a lucky day, you may see soaring eagles, seals, or most exciting of all, humpback whales. If they are present, the whales will no doubt steal the show, especially if one leaps from the water and lands with a tremendous splash. Scientists think whales breach the water to clean pests from their skin. However, they may do it just for fun.
It is a 30 minute walk to town. Nuuk is the capital city. 1849 Cathedral Katuag, University. Unique art pieces.
