Not many people have been lucky enough to visit Greenland, but those who do are able to speak on its wonders. Overshadowed by Iceland, its neighboring country, Greenland tends to fall underneath the radar. However, it’s an amazing place to visit, and here are three things to remember when you go there.

Wrap Up

Greenland lives up to its icy reputation, and even during the summer months, temperatures can be freezing. Packing layers of warm clothing is an absolute must, and can even be the difference between a horrible trip and an amazing one. Don’t leave behind your sweaters, a winter coat, and strong boots to keep your feet toasty and dry.

Become An Explorer

Greenland offers a wide range of activities for every type of adventurer. Whether you’re someone who enjoys looking at icebergs, or someone who loves soaking up in hot springs, there’s definitely something there for you to do. Heck, there’s even dog sledding if that’s your thing!

Meet the Locals

One of Greenland’s standout features is its rich and unique culture. The indigenous people are known as the Inuit, and they have a captivating history. Make the most of your visit by engaging with them and learning all about their unique way of life.

Temperature can be pretty brutal in certain areas of the world—and these icy-cold countries are the epitome of that. With their breathtaking landscapes and unique charm, they don’t hold back when it comes to their degree level. If you were wondering which three countries are the coldest in the world, these three certainly take the cake on another level.

Russia

Russia is a vast country that stretches across both Europe and Asia and boasts some of the coldest regions on our planet. From the remote Siberian wilderness to the captivating Arctic landscapes, Russia offers a fascinating glimpse into the frigid beauty of the north.

Greenland

There’s an old saying that Iceland has more greenery and Greenland has more ice. Well, as it turns out, there is some truth to that. Greenland is a land of glaciers, frozen fjords, and towering icebergs, and it offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquility that will leave you with lifelong memories.

Antarctica

Probably the most obvious on this list, Antarctica is a frozen wilderness unlike any other. This desolate and pristine landmass is known for its unforgiving temperatures and vast expanses of ice. Whether you’re exploring by ship or venturing onto the frozen continent itself, Antarctica promises an otherworldly experience that will leave you in awe of its sheer beauty.

Despite its neighbor, Iceland, being the more popular tourist attraction of the two, maybe people might be surprised by how much Greenland has to offer! Located between the Arctic and Atlantic Oceans, Greenland has some of the most beautiful scenery. Since it’s not a super popular tourist destination (and because of the smaller local population), much of the land appears untouched by humans. For those hoping for an escape into the wilderness, Greenland is perfect. If you find your way there, you must make sure to add these three things to your itinerary.

Whale Watching

If you’re visiting Greenland between summer and fall, you have a really high chance of seeing whales. You could see beluga whales, bowhead whales, and even narwhals!

Ilulissst Ice-Fjord

If you want to see one of the only places where the Greenland ice cap reaches above the water, you have to go to Ilulissat Ice-fjord. This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and it is truly a crazy, unique site that you can’t miss.

Uunartog Hot Springs

After being in such a cold climate, you’ll need to warm up. The Uunartog Hot Springs are the perfect place for exactly that! These naturally occurring hot pools are beautiful and relaxing, but the juxtaposition between the green area around the hot springs and the glaciers in the background is the real treasure.

Are you looking for a vacation destination where the extraordinary is ordinary? A vacation destination where you won’t find fancy hotels or five-star restaurants? Where nature rules and civilization scarcely exists?

Greenland is an autonomous territory of the Kingdom of Denmark and the largest island on Earth. While much of Greenland consists of ice sheets that are non-visitable, there are some excellent spots to check out if you want to get a taste of the Arctic.

When visiting Greenland, you will want to stick to the areas that are close to the coast. Here is where you will find some truly unforgettable spots to see.

Whale-watching and ice fjords can both be accessed via cruises along the island’s coast. Disko Bay is the site of much of this activity, where the region’s towns also offer a fascinating look at Inuit culture.

Inuit culture and Viking ruins are much of the cultural heritage that you will find on the island of Greenland. However, if that doesn’t strike your fancy, keep in mind that natural phenomena like the Aurora Borealis and geothermal hot springs are other potential opportunities to check out while visiting this territory.

Why not dive deep and explore what you want to do in order to plan your dream vacation to this natural paradise? It is sure to surprise.

If you’re an adventurer, why not try visiting some of these less well-known locales.

Tasmania

Most tourists head to Melbourne or Sidney when visiting Australia. Just off the southern coast, Tasmania provides a contrasting experience with the wildness of prehistoric eucalyptus forests, a rugged coastline, and rural countryside.

The coastal village of Eaglehawk Neck is the gateway to Tasmania and a great destination in its own right. A growing craft beer and contemporary art scene add a cosmopolitan flavor to the area.

Greenland

The main means of transportation in this remote location are sea kayaking and dog sledding. From September to April, you could see the incomparable Northern Lights. Sign up for a whale-watching trip or a wildlife excursion and see walruses, polar bears, and reindeer.  Take a helicopter ride over the towering fjiords and view the glacial tundra from the skies.

Uruguay

The time to visit Uruguay is in November at the start of the summer season. Stay at one of the design-forward resorts and experience sun and surf. South America is famous for its beach culture and Uruguay is no exception.

Enjoy grilled sea bass at a waterfront restaurant or pay a visit to a local vineyard.
