Nestling within the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic, this unique archipelago composed of 18 islands lies northwest of Scotland and roughly midway between the Shetland Islands and Iceland. At no time is one further than 3 miles from the Ocean and the highest mountain measures 882m above sea level.  This is a breathtaking landscape with dramatic volcanic cliffs dropping vertically into the Atlantic.

You won’t find fresher air or a more virgin landscape anywhere else on earth.  This is a destination with immense appeal for nature lovers, bird watchers and walkers. The Faroe Islands are a fitting tribute to a unique and friendly local community and a stunning, unspoilt landscape set within a wild ocean.
