In the summer, there are regular ferries up and down the coast - in particular to the larger towns of Ilulissat and Aasiaat (both of which boast sizeable fish processing plants).

Qasigiannguit is a very pretty little town - the name is West Greenlandic for 'small spotted seals', and they're there in abundance. It's a great spot for walking, and the town itself has some pretty spots.
