To the north, the fjord opens into the Lincoln Sea.

Administratively it is part of the Northeast Greenland National Park.

It is a fairly large fjord that opens to the NNW between Cape Bryant and Dragon Point, at the northern end of Hendrik Island becoming broader towards its head.

[1] Saint George Fjord forms Nyeboe Land's eastern coastline and Hendrik Island forms part of the northern half of the facing shore, while the shore south of the Hartz Sound that separates the island from the mainland is part of Warming Land.

The Hartz Sound connects the mid fjord area with neighboring Sherard Osborn Fjord to the east.
