Greenland

Sailing expeditions to the world’s largest island

We’re going back to Greenland!

In 2025, we spent the whole summer in Greenland, and we thought that was it. But it was not.

We’re not done exploring. We want to sail deeper into the fjords, get higher up in the mountains and see more of this enormous coastline.

So, in 2027, we’re going back.

Exploring by sailboat

Greenland is a place that makes sense from the sea. There are few roads between the settlements, and the coastline stretches for thousands of kilometres. With the sailboat as our home, we can move with the weather and the ice. We can anchor beneath mountains, take the dinghy ashore and start walking.

Some days we sail far. Other days we stay put, hike a mountain, explore a fjord or spend time in a settlement.

Weather and ice will have their say too. That’s part of it.

We also want to spend more time in the settlements along the way. Not just stop by, but get to know more people and understand a little more about everyday life along this coast.

On board, everyone takes part. We sail together, keep lookout, cook, eat and live together. And when a whale appears between the icebergs, someone usually shouts.

Summer 2027

We’ll spend the summer sailing along different parts of Greenland’s west coast.

There will be ocean crossings, long fjords, mountains, small settlements, icebergs and plenty of time on deck.

We don’t know everything we’ll find along the way.

A real expedition – a super rare chance to fully participate in a wonderful adventure. This gave us the opportunity to explore places we had only dreamt of being able to get to, and that not many if any get to experience. An absolute treat that we will always remember. Thank you!

FAQ Greenland

How is Greenland governed?

Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark, but has a high degree of self-government, which was last extended in 2009. Self-government does not include matters of national politics, such as foreign and security policy.

What is the climate like in Greenland?

Greenland is located in the polar climate zone, where temperatures in winter can drop as low as -50°C. Greenland does not get the Gulf Stream effect, so during the summer, temperatures rarely rise above 15°C. However, due to Greenland’s size, temperatures can vary significantly from region to region.

5 facts about Greenland

The population is 56,421 people (as of June 2021). The indigenous people, the Inuit, make up a clear majority on the island. During the trip, you’ll learn more about the Inuit culture and may even have the opportunity to get to know some locals better.
The official language in Greenland is Greenlandic, which most of the people speaks. Many also understand Danish, and some consider themselves bilingual, with Danish as a second language.
The capital of Greenland is Nuuk (Godthåb).
Greenland is the world’s largest island and is located on the North American continent. Geopolitically, the island is part of Europe.

Highlights of our Greenland trips

We stop at a small settlement that rarely gets visitors – a big event both for us and the locals.
In Greenland, there are almost no roads between the settlements, and all transportation occurs by boats and ships in the summer or by small planes and helicopters in the winter. The fact that we can move around by boat and get so close to nature is truly special!
Majestic icebergs rising in the fjord arms, where you can listen to the sounds of ice moving.
Wildlife we frequently encounter is the musk ox, whales, polar bears, arctic foxes, and walruses. Remember to keep a lookout!
