FAROE ISLANDS

When to visit the Faroe Islands

The best time to visit the Faroe Islands really depends on your vibe.

Summer (June to August) gives you long days, decent weather, and a good shot at spotting puffins — but it’s also when things are busiest and priciest.

Spring and autumn are quieter, a little moodier (in the best way). The weather is never predictable in the Faroe Islands, but even less-so during these shoulder seasons, so layer up.

Winter? It’s wild, stormy, and dark — but also the time for dramatic views and no crowds. Not that the Faroe Islands are ever crowded.

Car rental in the Faroe Islands

Renting a car is the only real way to get around the Faroe Islands for an epic trip.

Get an eSIM for the Faroe Islands

Some eSIM companies don’t operate in the Faroe Islands yet, and you can’t assume an eSIM for Denmark will work all the way over in the middle of the Atlantic. Saily is a low-cost option that’s available in the Faroes so you can stay connected.
