In the northeast, it is bounded by the Wandel Land nunatak, culminating in an unnamed 931 m (3,054 ft) peak.

Iterlassuaq, a small indentation of the bay separates Wandel Land in the north from Qaqqasungnarsuaq − another, smaller nunatak, culminating in an unnamed 510 m (1,670 ft) peak.

[1] A small unnamed glacier tongue of Greenland ice sheet drains the latter into the innermost part of the bay, east of the opening of the Ikerasaa Strait.

The strait flows west-south-westward between Kiatassuaq Island in the north, and Sanningassorsuaq Peninsula in the south.

The entrance to the strait is split into two channels, with a small Milissua Island straddling the middle.
