Frederikshåb Glacier, also called Sioqqap Sermia in Greenlandic and Frederikshåb Isblink or Frederikshåb Gletscher in Danish, is a glacier on the southwest coast of Greenland in the Sermersooq municipality. It flows down from the Greenland ice sheet to a terminus where meltwater collects in ponds and channels before draining into the Davis Strait. The nearest significant settlement is Paamiut, about 110 kilometers to the south; Frederikshåb is itself the historical Danish name for Paamiut.
