If you want more - here you go! If you want it to be whiter - here it is! If you want more claws there - here you are! Icebergs in Greenland are for every taste! Sitting under a warm blanket, it is difficult to imagine the whole variety of icebergs, their palette of colors, and their sizes. But it is simply impossible to take your eyes off these huge blocks of ice in Greenland, especially in Tasiilaq.
Everything seems a little more there than it really is. The mountains are higher, the distances are greater, the possibilities are numerous. For example, you can visit one of the largest fjords in the world, which is dotted with icebergs.
It is a must-visit place. This is the most natural of the natural attractions of Greenland and Tasiilaq in particular.
The name Sermilik Fjord, translated from Greenlandic, means "a place with glaciers." It is located fifteen kilometers from Tasiilaq, in the southern part of the King Christian land.
Sit in the boat in Tasiilaq and start your difficult way to the fjord. Be prepared for negative temperatures and positive emotions, cold wind, and hot impressions that will warm your soul when you return home. The fjord is dotted with icebergs, which makes the route somewhat dangerous. However, if you choose a reliable instructor, you can just enjoy nature with your mouth open.
The landscape of the fjord itself is also quite capricious. Landing on its shores is very problematic. It is easier and safer to enjoy its beauty from the outside. However, there is even a small house in one of the banks. This is actually the Sermilik Station, a glaciological research station. Scientists come there in the summer. In winter, it is empty.
The fjord waters feed the nearby glaciers, pieces of which break off and turn into icebergs. The beauty of the fjord is impressive! And its size is a little scary but delightful at the same time. It is worth to visit, test yourself, and see the incredible beauty of Greenland.
