Scoresby Sound, also known as Scoresby Sund in Greenlandic, is a massive fjord system located on the eastern coast of Greenland. Stretching over 110 kilometers long and covering an area of about 38,000 square kilometers, it's like a tree with branches of fjords branching out. The depths range from 400 to 1,450 meters, making it one of the largest and longest fjord systems in the world. It was named after English explorer William Scoresby, who meticulously mapped the area in 1822. With its stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and Arctic climate, Scoresby Sound is a must-see destination for nature enthusiasts and adventurers alike.
