Qooqqut Fish’n’dish

Qooqqut – Fish’n’dish

Join us on an adventure into the beautiful Nuuk Fjord.

Where you’ll catch the freshest fish, which will then be prepared for you to enjoy at the amazing Restaurant Qooqqut Nuan – doesn’t that sound like the perfect way to spend 5-6 hours?

It takes about an hour to sail to our fishing spot, where we will fish for about an hour.

Even if you usually don’t have the patience for fishing, you’ll be captivated by the thrill when the jigging line drops to the bottom – and suddenly… you have a bite! (very often, but not always!) Is it a battle-ready cod or a glistening redfish tugging on the hook? One thing is for sure: the chances of landing a delicious catch are high.

Once we’ve hauled in enough fish, we head towards Qooqqut Nuan, a restaurant nestled in the peaceful fjord, offering a truly magical view of the mountains and the fjord. The restaurant’s chefs are ready to transform your catch into a delicious dinner with an Asian twist. We spend a couple of hours at Qooqqut, and after the meal, you can take a walk around in the lovely area to see if you can pull the sword from the stone. Then we head back to Nuuk.

Are you ready to find out if there’s a true fisherman within you and enjoy a magical dinner in Nuuk Fjord? Book your tour with us.

We provide the fishing gear, and our crew is ready with assistance, tips, and good humor throughout.
We’ll reserve a table for you at the restaurant, and a main course is included in the price.
Drinks and dessert are NOT included in the price and must be paid at the restaurant before departure.

Me and my friend have joined ‘ Qoornoq Island Tour’ in the beginning of April. It was absolutely magical experience and highly recommend! During the whole trip we had wonderful weather and the captain of the boat also told us about history of Greenland. The staff was also very nice! Thank you so much for your generous hospitality and also warm drinks on the boat ☕️

We had the most spectacular experience with Greeland Cruises on a whale safari in August 2024. Be aware that their terms of service specify that you can not get a refund after purchase regardless of how long in advance you ask for it. So I recommend ordering tickets only if you are certain you can make it. We booked 1 day in advance. Aside from the administrative downsides, Greenland Cruises provided a wonderful experience with 3 hours of whale watching. We were lucky enough to spot the giants before the trip even began, and we ended up seeing 3 or 4 unique whales. The captain made sure we had the best time and got us very close to one of the whales, which was the highlight of the experience. Very nice and informative crew. Do not get discouraged by the weather. There was thick fog and cloudy in Nuuk, and it had recently rained, but we did not experience any issues on the boat as it did not impact the tour (see videos) I highly recommend Greenland Cruises for this experience.
