Workation in Nuuk: the essentials

Founded in 1728 by the missionary Hans Egede, Nuuk is the northernmost capital in the world and home to about 20,100 people, more than a third of Greenland's population. Apartment blocks now stand close to the colonial harbour on the Labrador Sea, and the national museum, the Katuaq cultural centre and the University of Greenland give a small town the functions of a capital. The peak of Sermitsiaq rises across the water, and a huge fjord system starts at the edge of town. The rebuilt Nuuk Airport, about 4 km out, opened in 2024 and can take long-haul jets. Winters are long and dark, and weather regularly disrupts flights.
