Greenland offers outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, hunting, fishing, coastal sailing, and cruises, all showcasing the country’s Arctic landscape and Inuit culture.

Adventure tourism is growing, with opportunities for kayaking, heli-skiing, and long-distance skiing expeditions on the ice cap.
