Ataa was a settlement in the Disko Bay region of western Greenland. It was located on the eastern coast of Alluttoq Island, approximately {{convert|60|km|mi|abbr=on}} to the north of Ilulissat and {{convert|30|km|mi|abbr=on}} to the southeast of Qeqertaq.
History
The settlement was abandoned around 1960. It served as a backdrop for the 1997 Danish film Smilla's Sense of Snow, an adaptation of Peter Høeg's 1992 novel Miss Smilla's Feeling for Snow.{{cite book|last=O'Carroll|first=Etain|title=Greenland and the Arctic|publisher=Lonely Planet|pages=179|date=2005|isbn=1-74059-095-3}}
