Nólsoy
A small island across from Tórshavn, reached by a 20-minute ferry. Visit for its whalebone arch, a lighthouse hike, and night-time birdwatching for storm petrels.
Nólsoy sits like a barrier across from Tórshavn and is reached by a roughly 20-minute ferry ride. At the entrance to the island's village stands an arch made of whale jawbones. A round-trip hike of about 5 hours takes you to the lighthouse at the island's south end, or you can climb the central ridge for views back over Tórshavn. The island is home to one of the largest colonies of storm petrels in the world, and guided birdwatching tours run at night in summer. Ferry schedules are limited, so be sure to confirm your return time.
