Niaqornaarsuk (Script error: No such module "IPA".) is a village in the Qeqertalik municipality in western Greenland, along the northern entrance to Arfersiorfik Fjord. Its population was 249 in 2020.[1]
Transport
Air Greenland serves the village as part of government contract, with winter-only helicopter flights from Niaqornaarsuk Heliport to Aasiaat Airport and Kangaatsiaq Heliport.[2] Settlement flights in the Aasiaat Archipelago are unique in that they are operated only during winter and spring.
During summer and autumn, when the waters of Disko Bay are navigable, communication between settlements is by sea only, serviced by Diskoline.[3] The ferry links Niaqornaarsuk with Kangaatsiaq, Attu, Iginniarfik, Ikerasaarsuk, and Aasiaat.
Population
The population of Niaqornaarsuk has fluctuated over the last two decades, decreasing in the 2000s.[4]
