    Cruising Ilulissat / Disko Bay, Greenland
    • Cruising Ilulissat / Disko Bay, Greenland
    Disko Bay is a wide, southeastern inlet of Baffin Bay and is the largest open bay in western Greenland. Try to get out on deck as we navigate into this iconic bay where whales are often spotted. Disko Bay is full of exciting destinations for us to explore. We will almost certainly visit the community of Ilulissat, which is situated at the head of outlet fjord for Sermeq Kujalleq (Jakobshavn Glacier), known for discharging 35 billion tons of ice each year. Declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2004, the fjord is immensely beautiful and you are encouraged to explore it via one of the many marked hiking trails. Another area we will consider for this itinerary is the wild beauty of Eqip Sermia or Torsukattak fjords, located in the northeast corner of Disko Bay. Both of these remote areas offer fantastic vistas of large active glacial faces and provide plenty of opportunities for hiking, paddling, and Zodiac cruising. This is also an area where, if conditions allow, we will consider utilizing our twin-engine helicopters to appreciate the immensity of this region from the air. ...

    • Ittileg, Greenland
    Qeqqata (meaning center) municipality is Greenland's second-smallest administrative region. Situated in the middle of the country's western coast, Qeqqata is home to almost 20% of Greenland's populace, most of whom reside in Sisimiut and Maniitsoq. During these two days your expedition team will work with local partners to curate a balance of community and wilderness-focused activities. We are likely to visit Sisimiut, where you can wonder through the open-air museum, participate in local tastings, or join a hiking group to venture beyond the town limits along one of many incredible hiking trails on Sisimiut's doorstep. This is where we will also offer the (paid) mountain biking activity. Further south, the team will seek to take you beyond the ordinary and into these fjords for magical one-of-a-kind experiences, one of which is Eternity Fjord, which is home to the tallest mountains in all of West Greenland. Another fascinating community in this region is Itilleq. Surrounded by sea and mountains, Itilleq is located about a mile (2 kilometers) above the Arctic Circle. The Quark Expeditions team has enjoyed a longstanding relationship with the people of Itilleq, who often gather and invite us for a pick-up game of soccer or football. ...
