Blomster Bugt, Greenland

The broad valley of Blomster Bugt (Flower Bay) gets its name from the colorful flowering plants on its shores. The landing attracts us with fantastical geologic formations, a lake with great northern divers raising their young, a quick-footed population of white arctic hares and frequent groups of grazing musk oxen. There is an early 20th-century hunters’ hut to poke around, and the tundra meadows guarantee some of East Greenland’s most memorable views.

This deep Arctic destination is known for its Arctic hare population as well as the great northern divers (and their young) that gather around Blomsterbugt's nearby lake.
