== Geography == Sarfannguit is located on the eastern promontory of an island of the same name, approximately east of Sisimiut, facing the mainland of Greenland across the Imartuninnguaq Strait, at this point only wide. The strait opens into the Amerloq Fjord in the west, which then heads to the west, emptying into the Davis Strait south of Sisimiut. Ikertooq Fjord bounds the island from the south.
