Greenland: Climate & Weather
The climate is arctic, but the island is large enough to vary according to the area. The coastal region experiences the absence of ice during the very short period of summer, while the interior is permanently covered with ice. Inland and north, temperatures drop to -35 ° C, rising to 5 ° C in summer (June, July, August).
In the south and along the fjords, the temperature in summer can sometimes reach 20 ° C. It is therefore better to visit Greenland between June and August. |
