Geography

Karrat Fjord has its mouth in the Nordost Bay of the Baffin Bay. The head of the fjord is formed by a number of tributaries, including the Rink Glacier, Ingia Glacier and Umiamako Glacier fjords, as well as the Ukkusissat Fjord.[1][2]

The fjord heads to the southwest, with the islands of Qeqertarsuaq Island (Karrat Fjord), Illorsuit Island and Upernivik Island near its mouth.[2]
