Engelskmandens Havn (Englishman's Harbour) Springs in the Qeqertalik district of western Greenland are oligomineral thermal springs in a remote fjord landscape accessible only by boat during the Arctic open-water season, offering one of the world's most geographically isolated thermal bathing experiences amid the dramatic scenery of Greenlandic fjords, icebergs, and tundra. The springs reflect the geothermal activity associated with Greenland's complex geological history, where ancient Precambrian basement rocks have been fractured by tectonic forces that allow deep-seated warm water to reach the surface in scattered locations. The experience of soaking in natural warm water while surrounded by Greenland's icefjord landscape — polar bears, musk oxen, and Arctic foxes in the surrounding tundra — is without parallel in the world's catalogue of extreme thermal experiences.
