Sarfaq is a former settlement in the Qeqertat Archipelago region of northwestern Groenland. It was located on Sermersooq Island, an island in Tasiusaq Bay, in the north-central part of the archipelago. The village was perched near the eastern cape of the island, on the shores of Kangerlussuaq Island.^[2] The settlement was abandoned in 2004 because no one lived there.^[1]
