Skaer Fjord is located north of
Danmarkshavn on the northern shore of
Germania Land, with its mouth between
Kap Kajak in the south and
Cape Amelie in the north, southwest of
Île-de-France's southern end. It is an irregular and broad fjord or bay with several arms extending westwards from it: •
Penthievre Fjord in the north with
C. Silfverberg Island and
Joinville Island on its southwestern shore and the
Nordmarken peninsula in the north. •
Agsut Sound, off the southern shore of the islands. •
H.G. Backlundfjord, south of Agsut Sound; named after Swedish geologist
Helge Backlund. •
V. Clausen Fjord, together with the previous fjord, roughly in the middle. •
C.F. Mourier Fjord, the southwesternmost arm. All these fjords are roughly parallel, the northernmost ones running in a WNW/ESE direction. The southernmost one runs roughly from east to west for about 20 km. •
Flade Bugt is an arm of the bay located on its southern shore opening towards the north. ==Bibliography==
