Amitsorsuaq Island is a small, uninhabited island in Avannaata municipality in northwestern Greenland.

Geography

Amitsorsuaq Island is located in the north-central part of Upernavik Archipelago, in the group between Kangerlussuaq Icefjord in the south, and Nuussuaq Peninsula in the north.[1]

Together with its sibling Nasaussaq Island, Amitsorsuaq Island separates Nasaussap Saqqaa in the south from the inner parts of Sugar Loaf Bay in the north. It is separated from an unnamed nunatak on the mainland of Greenland by the narrow and short Amitsorsuup Sullua strait. the Ussing Glacier drains the Greenland ice sheet immediately to the east of the southeastern cape of the island. The island is separated from Nasaussaq Island in the west by the small Ikerasakassak strait.[1]

The highest point on the island is an unnamed, Шаблон:Convert peak in the western part.[1]
