Which side of the plane to sit from Qaqortoq Heliport (Qaqortoq) to Narsaq Heliport (Narsaq)?
Right Side of the Plane
The right side offers a superior view of the dramatic Greenlandic fjords, rugged mountain peaks, and the colorful settlement of Narsaq upon approach.
Qaqortoq View
A beautiful aerial perspective of Greenland's most colorful town immediately after takeoff.
Kattu Peaks
Fly close to the sharp granite ridges and alpine-style mountains that divide the fjord systems.
Tunulliarfik Fjord
Stunning views of the fjord that served as the center of the historic Norse Eastern Settlement.
Narsaq Approach
Dramatic final descent with views of the town's vibrant houses nestled beneath the Kvanefjeld mountain.
The right side is essential for seeing the transition from the Qaqortoq hills to the Narsaq valley. Look for the contrast between the green summer tundra and the dark, snow-capped peaks.
Iceberg Alley
Spot large icebergs drifting from the Bredefjord out toward the open North Atlantic.
Labrador Sea
Expansive vistas of the deep blue sea meeting the jagged southern coastline of Greenland.
Coastal Skerries
Dozens of small, uninhabited rocky islands and skerries dot the shoreline below.
Coastal Shipping Routes
Watch for local fishing boats and the Sarfaq Ittuk ferry navigating the coastal channels.
This side is best for iceberg enthusiasts. Early morning flights provide dramatic lighting over the water, making the floating ice appear glowing white against the blue sea.
