Untouched Greenland Sailing Expedition

Greenland, the world’s largest island, is a land of stark beauty and dramatic landscapes. Its west coast is a tapestry of fjords, towering icebergs, and rugged mountains, offering a unique backdrop for an unforgettable sailing adventure. The region is rich in Inuit culture and history, with small fishing villages dotting the coastline, providing a glimpse into the traditional way of life.

Sailing in Greenland is a thrilling experience, with the Valiente navigating through icy waters and past colossal icebergs. The journey offers a mix of offshore sailing and coastal exploration, with opportunities to learn about navigation, watchkeeping, and boat handling in Arctic conditions. The midnight sun casts a magical light over the landscape, making every moment at sea a visual feast.

Beyond sailing, Greenland offers a wealth of activities. Guests can hike through untouched landscapes, fish in pristine waters, and watch for wildlife such as whales and seals. The journey includes visits to historical sites and interactions with local communities, providing a deeper understanding of Greenland’s rich cultural heritage.

Cuisine aboard the Valiente is a communal affair, with guests taking turns to prepare meals. The menu features hearty dishes that reflect the local flavours, with fresh fish often caught during the voyage. This shared experience fosters camaraderie among guests and crew, enhancing the overall adventure.

Greenland’s history is as captivating as its landscapes. The island has been inhabited for thousands of years, with the Inuit people adapting to its harsh conditions. The Norse settlers, led by Erik the Red, established colonies here in the 10th century, leaving behind fascinating archaeological sites.

The best time to visit Greenland for sailing is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is milder and the days are long. This period offers the best conditions for exploring the fjords and enjoying the natural beauty of the region.
