About Sermiligaaq Heliport
Sermiligaaq Heliport is a small helicopter landing site serving the village of Sermiligaaq, a hunting and fishing settlement in the Sermersooq municipality of southeastern Greenland. With a population of just over 200, the village relies on the heliport as one of its few year-round links to the wider region.
The heliport operates as a single helistop with a grass landing area and is served by Air Greenland under a government contract. Scheduled helicopter flights connect Sermiligaaq with Tasiilaq, the regional hub located about 100 kilometres to the south, where passengers can continue to Kulusuk Airport and onward flights.
Because there are no roads connecting Sermiligaaq to other settlements, helicopter services and seasonal boat transport are the main ways to travel. The helicopter journey to Tasiilaq takes around 25 minutes, after which onward connections continue across the east Greenland network.
Facilities at the heliport are minimal, reflecting its role as a village landing site rather than a full airport. Travellers should plan ahead for practical needs before arriving in Sermiligaaq.
