South Greenland Wildlife & Iceberg Charter by Private Boat

Commission an exclusive private boat charter to seek out humpback and minke whales, seals, and Arctic seabirds among the drifting icebergs of South Greenland's richest marine waters — entirely on your own schedule.

What to expect

Your experienced local skipper departs on your timeline, navigating waters where humpback whales regularly surface among glittering icebergs — a combination found almost nowhere else on Earth. The pace is entirely yours: photograph, observe, or simply absorb the vast silence of a landscape that has barely changed in millennia. Seals bask on ice floes, Arctic terns dive around the bow, and on clear days the coastal mountains of Cape Farewell shimmer on the horizon. Rated 5.0 on TripAdvisor, this is a rarefied, deeply personal Arctic experience.

Good to know

Private charter bookings require advance arrangement — contact the operator well before your cruise departs. Discuss all-aboard requirements so the skipper can plan the return. Bring binoculars, a telephoto lens, and serious warm-weather layers. Availability is limited; early booking is essential.
