This live camera looks out over Kangerlussuaq, a small settlement on Greenland's west coast at the edge of the ice sheet. Watch it to see how the town and its surroundings look right now, from the Arctic light to the changing seasons.
A gateway to the ice
Kangerlussuaq sits at the head of a long fjord, where the Arctic tundra meets the vast Greenland ice sheet. For decades it has been the main air hub of the island, with the international airport serving as the link to the rest of the world. The landscape is wide and quiet, shaped by glaciers, lakes and low hills that turn red and gold in autumn.
What to watch and when
The stream shows the town and its surroundings as conditions change through the day. Long summer evenings bring soft, low sunlight, while in winter the view depends on daylight hours, snow and cloud cover. Clear days in spring are often the most rewarding for watching the snow-covered landscape and the sky above it.
Climate and getting around
Kangerlussuaq has a dry, continental Arctic climate, colder and drier than most of Greenland's coast, with mild summers and very cold winters. The best time to visit is from June to August, when temperatures are highest and daylight is longest. The town is reached mainly by air, and the cameras nearby, such as the one in Sisimiut about 130 km away, offer a view of another side of the coast.
