Faroe Islands Warnings and Dangers: 9 reviews and 1 photos

The weather in the Faroe Islands is extremely changeable and should be taken into account when making your travel plans. An extensive tunnel building programme has been ongoing in the Faroes for 30 years or more but some islands can only be reached by ferry. Unfavourable sea conditions can cause delayed or cancelled sailings. The Faroes International Airport on Vágar can be prone to fog which again can cause delays and candellations to flights. Our return flight was repeatedly delayed and then cancelled due to Vágar Airport being fog bound. I ended up spending two extra days in the Faroe Islands because of the weather! Be prepared, if you are the sort of person who lives by tight schedules you may find the Faroese weather most frustrating, just do as the locals do .. accept it!
