Ocean Adventures at the Faroe Islands
Historically, the Faroe Islands were a place for explorers.
Today it is a place for adventures at sea. Tourists can ride a restored schooner or the sailing ship called the Dragin as they set sail on sunny days to take you on a thrilling adventure at see. When the wind and tide are favorable, tourists can see the many grottos along the shoreline that stand out like magnificent cathedrals.
Some tours will take you to the spectacular bird cliffs at Vestmanna. Tourists can enter the grottos through smaller boats in order to see where the seabirds nest or just sit along the cliffs. There are bird cliffs on the west side of Sandoy as well, where men collect eggs by lowering themselves over the edge of the cliffs.
Fishing trips are also available and boaters can fish the North Atlantic waters.
