Crossing to East Greenland, explore vast fjord systems carved by ancient ice and visit the remote community of Ittoqqortoormiit inside Scoresby Sound, which offers an authentic glimpse into life at the edge of the Arctic. Continue north to the isolated volcanic island of Jan Mayen, featuring the world’s northernmost active volcano, Beerenberg, rising starkly from the open sea.
