Tasiilap Karra[1] or Cape Gustav Holm (Danish: Kap Gustav Holm) is a headland in eastern Greenland, Sermersooq municipality.


It was named after officer of the Danish Navy and Arctic explorer Gustav Holm (1849 – 1940).



Geography


Cape Gustav Holm is located near the Arctic Circle on the shores of the Denmark Strait coast of the North Atlantic Ocean, northeast of Tasiilaq.[2]


This cape is the southern end of a narrow mountainous peninsula east of the Ikersuak Fjord which extends in a NE/SW direction, rising to a height of 966 m. The islet of Nanertalik lies 1.2 km off a small projection on the shore 5 km northeast of the cape and Cape Buchholz is located a further 7 km to the northeast along the coast.[3] The Northern K.J.V. Steenstrup Glacier has its terminus west of the cape.[4]
