End or starting point of the MV Sarfaq Ittuk, Narsaq is a relatively young town only achieving town status in 1959 with a population of just 600 people. The town is linked by boat (3 hours) or helicopter (15 minutes) to the main town of Narsarsuaq but there is plenty to keep you amused in and around the town. The valley and mountains in Narsaq's wilderness are a paradise for geology enthusiasts as there are many rare and unique rocks and minerals here that are not found anywhere else in the world.
