Hellefjord is a fjord in King Frederick VIII Land, northeastern Greenland.
Hellefjord was named by the 1906-1908 Denmark expedition, after the German word for "light", in contrast with the "dark" Mørkefjord to the north.
This fjord is located in Daniel Bruun Land, east of Danmarkshavn. There are two parallel fjords to the north of it, Mørkefjord and Sælsøen, a lake with a fjord structure. It runs from east to west for nearly 30 km. Its mouth is in northern Dove Bay.
