Icebergs are unique work of nature, and their magnificence and majesty must be experienced on firsthand. 

No, Icebergs are the same, but in countless different shapes and sizes - and if you are lucky, you can see icebergs with beautiful openings that form tempting passages to sail through.

About the Ice Cap

Icebergs consist of heavily compacted snow that fell on the Greenlandic ice cap several thousand years ago - in some cases more than 15,000 years ago. The tallest icebergs are at a height corresponding to a 15-storey building above the ocean's surface, whilst the smallest is about the size of a hut."

Beautiful spots

You will find that Ilulissat and Uummannaq are particularly well-known as the source of many large icebergs that break off the glaciers in the deep fjords. But also, in Southern Greenland, you will find smaller icebergs that are as beautiful as in the north.

You must remember that you can only see the top of the iceberg; the other 7/8 of the iceberg is left to your imagination.
