Drangarnir
Giant sea arches and the spire-like island of Tindhólmur off the western tip of Vágar, among the most dramatic seascapes in the Faroe Islands.
Drangarnir is a pair of sea stacks off the western tip of Vágar, outside the village of Bøur. On Stóri Drangur there is a huge natural arch, which together with the jagged Tindhólmur island behind it forms a classic scene. You can view it from the road near Bøur. For a closer look, join a paid guided hike, which takes about 4 to 5 hours round trip, or take a sightseeing boat. The land is private, and crossing it without permission is strictly prohibited. It is about 15 minutes' drive from Vágar Airport.
