Simiutaq_Island
Simiutaq Island is a 13 km × 10 km (8.1 mi × 6.2 mi) uninhabited island in the Qeqqata municipality in western Greenland, located in the mouth of the long Kangerlussuaq Fjord.[1] It was also known informally as Cruncher Island.
Supply ships of Royal Arctic Line and cruise ships, such as Norway's Hurtigruten[2] sail into Kangerlussuaq Fjord south of the island. The fjord is navigable in its entire length, with the ships mooring at the Kangerlussuaq port, west of Kangerlussuaq Airport.[3] There are several small skerries in the mouth of the fjord, at the southern end of Simiutaq Island.
