We will make the most of current conditions and pack in as many shore landings, nature walks, kayaking tours, and wildlife sightings as possible. Visit Ittoqqortoormiit, the most remote inhabited community in the Western Hemisphere. Conditions permitting, we'll sail towards the ever-changing eastern ice edge of the Greenland Sea to scout for wildlife.
