The skippers who run these operations often work year round whenever there is open water, and in East Greenland Siggi Pétursson, who came to Kuummiut from Iceland about 20 years ago, practically lives on his boat Uiloq – “The Clam” – throughout winter.

With Siggi Tours he services the villages of Kulusuk and Kuummiut and East Greenland’s largest town Tasiilaq with passenger transfers and cargo shipments, and is generally the safest bet when you need to go between places without worrying about weather challenges.
