About Greenland
Greenland is the largest non-continental island. It lies within the Arctic Circle and has formal ties with Denmark, although its population recently voted for further powers of self-rule. It has roughly the same land area as Mexico, but some map projections make it look much larger.
top Tips for travelling to Greenland
Greenland does not have good roads and because of the long distances involved, the best way to get around is by plane. It is possible to catch a passenger ship up the west coast between Qaqortoq and Ilulissat for part of the year.
