Kangersivartikajik, old spelling Kangerdluarssikajik, meaning "The bad little fjord,"[2] is a fjord in Eastern Greenland.
This fjord is located east of Sermilik (Sermiligaaq) in King Christian IX Land, north of Tasiilaq (Ammassalik).[3] It runs from north to south for about 9 km. Sammileq (Sammilik) Fjord branches roughly northeastwards on the eastern side of its mouth. Leif Island is located to the south.[1]
