Nature
Sermitsiaq Glacier is a tidewater glacier in western Greenland within Qeqqata municipality. It drains the Maniitsoq ice cap into two fjords leading toward Davis Strait: Kangaamiut Kangerluarsuat Fjord to the north and the longer Kangerlussuatsiaq Fjord to the south. This split drainage defines its setting, as ice from the Maniitsoq ice cap flows into both fjord systems before reaching the coast. The glacier is one of Greenland’s many outlet glaciers and is notable here for connecting the inland ice cap landscape with the long fjords of the west coast.
