Scoresbysund is an important settlement in eastern Greenland and the gateway to the world's largest fjord system, Scoresbysund Fjord, situated at around 70°N in a polar climate. As one of the least populated regions of Greenland, with fewer than 500 permanent residents, it is rooted in Inuit culture and has a slow and tranquil pace of life. The local economy is based on fishing (e.g. Greenland shrimp, crab) and seasonal polar tourism, which attracts explorers in the summer to see spectacular glaciers, fjord scenery and Arctic wildlife. Despite its remoteness, the area retains a mix of traditional and modern life, and is a unique window into the polar wilderness and Inuit culture.
