The Best Attractions In Qaanaaq

Cruise to Qaanaaq, The Top of the World in NW Greenland

There is an interesting Inuit food story about Little Auks (a bird). They catch with nets, boil, and then store for winter by placing up to 100 birds inside a sealskin with blubber, close it up and store. The auks ferment and rot with the blubber to give this delicacy taste. Eeww...

Reminds me of Fermented Shark in Iceland.

The boat picked us up at Qaarsut and took us to one of the peninsulas in the end of Uummannaq fjord, 600 km north of the Arctic Circle.
It took us 15 days days to get to Ikerasak and another two weeks from the north shore of Nugssuaq Peninsula to Disko Bay.
