Go on a private open boat tour (6 passengers included) to the beloved settlement of Qooqqut where a unique restaurant lies between huge mountains and a rich ocean filled with cod & redfish.

We will have time to either fish and bring it straight to the skilled chefs of the restaurant, or to go on a hike in the area where you can be lucky enough to spot eagles and caribou.

It takes about an hour of sailing to get to Qooqqut, and around the halfway point is where we often spot whales enjoying the nutrient-rich waters of the Nuuk Fjord. We might be lucky enough to spot some, although it can never be guaranteed.

The fjord has been known to be home to fin whales, minkes, and especially humpback whales. Besides these magnificent creatures, we might also be lucky enough to spot a seal or two!

If you would like to fish, we will have some standard gear to use, and we can either try for the Atlantic cod or the redfish - both delicious fish well worth cooking.

We can see several mountains along the way, such as “Oriartorfik”, a tall mountain with the resemblance of a wave, the name means “the place where you throw up” as standing at the edge of the mountain would make anyone a little nervous.

This fjord is incredibly beautiful and every tour is different from the previous, so do not wait any longer and book your tour today! Just click on ‘Book Now’ above and find a date that suits you.
