Arriving in Faroe Islands: Your Journey from Shetland Islands

Leaving Shetland behind, the crossing to the Faroe Islands takes you across open North Atlantic water before dramatic sea cliffs and grass-roofed villages come into view — a landscape unlike almost anywhere else in Europe. Tórshavn's small, colourful harbour is a worthwhile first stop after the crossing. Mulafossur waterfall, tumbling directly into the sea beside the village of Gásadalur, is one of the most photographed sights in the entire archipelago.
