Nansen Fjord is a fjord in eastern Greenland. It is part of the Sermersooq municipality.
This fjord lies in an indented area of the eastern Greenland coast where there is a succession of rocky headlands with active glaciers in between. Its mouth lies between Cape J.A.D. Jensen on Sokongen Island to the west and Cape Nansen to the east. Most of the fjord is filled by the Christian IV Glacier at its head.
