Qaarsorsuatsiaq Island is located in the outer belt of islands in Tasiusaq Bay, in the south-central part of Upernavik Archipelago. The inner waterways of Tasiusaq Bay separate it from Innaarsuit Island in the east. Several skerries buffer the western coast of the island.[1] The highest point on the island is Cuthbert Peak in the west, reaching 320 m (1,050 ft).[1]
