Tasiilaq (Greenland) cruise port

The first to reach the eastern part of Greenland were the people of Saqqaq culture. They arrived from the north, via what is currently popular as Independence Fjord and Peary Land, to be surpassed by Dorset culture. In the 15th century Thule migrations passed through the region, finding the uninhabited southeastern coast.

Thanks to back migrations to more densely populated western coast, Greenland's southeastern coast was deserted for another 200 years and the region was not settled until late 18th century, with the village of Tasiilaq surviving as the only constant settlement in the 19th century. Population increased, dispersing over a few villages in the area.

Tasiilaq is among country's fastest-growing towns, with migrants from smaller settlements and towns reinforcing the trend. Along with Nuuk, it is the only town in Sermersooq to exhibit stable growth in the last decades.
