Natural Spa With A Scenic View

Embark on a journey from Qaqortoq to the enchanting Uunartoq Island aboard our closed boat, designed for an intimate and unforgettable encounter with the Arctic’s magnificence.

 

As you sail for over an hour through the serene Arctic seas, the journey itself becomes part of the adventure. Along the way, marvel at the awe-inspiring sight of icebergs in all their majestic shapes and sizes, floating silently in the icy waters. These natural wonders set the tone for the beauty that lies ahead.

 

Arriving at the secluded haven of Uunartoq Island, you’ll be greeted by a landscape untouched by time—surrounded by majestic mountains, serene seas, and glistening icebergs. Step ashore into the wilderness, where a hidden path leads you to the island’s treasure: naturally heated springs. Immerse yourself in their soothing warmth, surrounded by the peaceful beauty of pristine nature.

 

Shrouded in ancient Inuit legends, Uunartoq Island is said to be a place of spirits, visible only in the occasional mist that cloaks the land. Today, however, it is the island’s breathtaking beauty that captivates all who visit. These thermal baths, once a healing sanctuary for Norsemen, now offer a tranquil escape, inviting you to relax and rejuvenate in their healing embrace.

 

Discover the serene allure of Uunartoq Island with us, where the majesty of the Arctic reveals itself in a peaceful setting—a journey not just to a destination, but to harmony and wonder.
