What to do

Leisure activities on sea

Despite the changes a modern society such as the Faroese is constantly going through, the open sea surrounding it remains the same. It can still give you an intense feeling of wanting to rediscover the world. The Faroe Island is the perfect destination for a fishing or active holiday. Step aboard a boat, breathe the fresh air and come in close contact with nature, enjoy the noise from the bird cliffs or enter one of the astonishing grottos where you can experience unique concerts.  For the more adventurous, the wild sea surrounding the Faroe Islands is ideal for diving and surfing. Get inspired and find just the right activity for you in the wide choice of experiences offered on sea.
