People from nearby Ittoqqortoormiit like to go to Hurry Inlet to fish Arctic char for recreational purposes.

Scoresby assumed that it was a sound that connected with Carlsberg Fjord to the north and that Liverpool Land was an island.

Carl Ryder found that the fjord was a dead end and not a marine channel in 1895.

[3] This fjord is located west of Ittoqqortoormiit in the northern shore of Scoresby Sound.

The northern end of Hurry Inlet continues northward beyond its head as the Klitdal (Kangerterajittap Ilinnera).
