Shore Excursions in the Arctic
The number of shore excursions you can expect will vary depending on which type of ship you choose to spend your Arctic expedition. The smaller research and Arctic expedition ships try to allow you to spend as much time as possible off the ship. Your Arctic excursion will take place on sturdy, inflatable Zodiac boats with small groups of around 10-12 people.
Some Arctic expedition liners also have Zodiacs, but will have more limited opportunities to make shore excursions due to the larger number of people on board.
Itineraries including Greenland have more than one Arctic excursion such as Qassiarsuk in the south where Eric the Red had his settlement in the 10th century; Nuuk, the country’s oldest town and the island of Disko, where the University of Copenhagen maintains a research station. Further north, visits to towns such as Qaanaaq and Siorapaluk afford opportunities to experience the culture of the Inuits and how they mix traditional and modern lifestyles. There are always opportunities for wildlife viewing, especially birds but also musk ox, arctic hares and caribou or reindeer.
