Qoornoq Village Tour
Qoornoq Village Tour
Join us on a scenic boat tour to Qoornoq, a charming former settlement and fishing village located deep within the beautiful Nuuk Fjord. Surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and Arctic nature, Qoornoq offers a unique glimpse into Greenland’s history and traditional way of life.
Once a small fishing community, Qoornoq is today mainly used as a summer retreat by local families from Nuuk. The village comes alive during the summer months, when colorful houses are occupied and locals return to enjoy the peaceful surroundings, fishing, and nature.
During the tour, you will experience the quiet atmosphere of this historic settlement while learning about its past, culture, and life in the fjord. Along the way, there may also be opportunities to spot whales, seals, seabirds, and other Arctic wildlife.
This tour is perfect for travelers who want to explore Greenland beyond the city and experience an authentic and peaceful part of Nuuk Fjord that can only be reached by boat.
