spot these huge mammals is at sea. Whale-watching tours are offered in several
towns in Greenland. When you sail along the coast on a passenger ship, the
captain will often notify you when whales are close.
There are many different species of whales in Greenlandic waters including the
two largest, the blue whale and the fin whale. Humpback whales, minke whales,
narwhales, beluga or white whales, sperm whales, pilot whales and Greenland
whales are among the other species here.
At sea you'll also see seals. An estimated two million seals live in Greenlandic
waters. Walruses are primarily seen in north and east Greenland.
Your first encounter with large animals in Greenland usually takes place very
soon after arrival. More than 3,000 musk oxen live in the area around
Kangerlussuaq Airport and some of them can be seen in the immediate
surroundings
