Kulusuk Island ((グリーンランド語:Kulusup qeqertaa)) is an island in the Sermersooq municipality on the southeastern shore of Greenland.〔Tasiilaq, Saga Map, Tage Schjøtt, 1992〕 It is an outlying island in the Ammassalik archipelago of islands on the coast of the North Atlantic. The island is home to Kulusuk, the fourth-largest settlement on the entire eastern coast of Greenland.〔(Statistics Greenland ) 〕 The island has an area of 41.98 km², and measures from north to south and from west to east. The Kulusuk Airport on the island is one of the two airports on the entire eastern Greenland coast. == Geography ==
The island is hilly throughout, with several distinct mountains dominating the eastern and southern coast. The southernmost point is the Naujaangivit cape ((デンマーク語:Kap Dan) − a name often extended to the settlement or the island) under the Isikajia mountain ().〔 To the northeast the island is separated from the Apusiaajik Island by the Ikaasaartik Strait. In the north, the Torsuut Tunoq sound separates it from the small, uninhabited Akinaaq island, ultimately linking it to the Ammassalik Fjord in the northwest.〔Tasiilaq, Saga Map, Tage Schjøtt, 1992〕 To the south and east the island shores are washed by the icy waters of the North Atlantic, through which flows the East Greenland Current.
