Kangerlussuaq - "The Great Fjord" in Inuit - is a former U.S. airbase and is situated inland, further south, just above the Arctic Circle and is home to just 500 people. It is next to the third largest fjord in the world and just 15 miles from the edge of the Ice Cap, and is a fertile oasis in the Arctic enviroment. Here you will find unique wildlife including over 5.000 musk oxen, Arctic fox, reindeer, falcons and even eagles.

Ilulissat - "Town of Icebergs" - with close to 5.000 inhabitants, is a modern town with its main focus on fishing in the clear waters of the Disco Bay. Big trawlers are netting shrimp while the local fishermen catch halibut on long lines in between the 300 foot high icebergs. The traditional hunting economy is still alive in the villages where life goes on like decades ago, in the spectacular Arctic nature. Sailing in between the icebergs, walking along the coast of the Ice Fjord and the Disco Bay or a helicopter tour to the Ice Cap are all experiences "out of this world".
