Greenland, the world's largest island, has rich ties to Europe, specifically Denmark and Norway, dating back over a millennium. It's an autonomous territory within the Kingdom of Denmark and home predominantly to the Inuit, descendants of the Thule people. They maintain a proud and ancient culture amidst a modern, self-governed state, powered predominantly by renewable energy.

Its landscape is moody and magnificent. Nearly 75% of Greenland is enveloped in an ice sheet, the only one of its kind outside Antarctica. Despite the chilly exterior, Greenland's name, a clever ruse by Norwegian settlers hoping to attract more inhabitants, paints a picture of verdant landscapes.

Greenland's touchpoints with history are palpable. The Norsemen settled Greenland in the 10th century after their stint in Iceland. It has subsequently been under Norwegian and Danish rule. Interestingly, during World War II, Greenland demonstrated resilience by developing a sense of self-government while under U.S. occupation to ward off potential German invasions.

Now, this Arctic gem is an inviting destination, temperate in summer, idyllic in winter, and promises delights like wildlife sightings, fjord navigation, and magical phenomena like the Northern Lights and the midnight sun.

When to visit Greenland

The best time to visit Greenland depends heavily on what you want to see. If extended daylight hours and mild temperatures sound appealing, then summer is your best bet. This time of the year is perfect for wildlife sightings, navigating the remarkable fjords, or experiencing the surreal phenomena of the midnight sun.

On the other hand, if a winter wonderland fascinates you, Greenland offers breathtaking landscapes in winter, providing the ideal conditions for dog sledding expeditions. Plus, the Northern Lights start waltzing across the sky as early as August.

Whichever season resonates with your senses, make sure to book your flights and accommodation via LycaFly– your bridge to the ethereal beauty of Greenland.
