1Mykines
Designated as a Ramsar site for its avian diversity, Mykines hosts an impressive array of birdlife. The island is most renowned for its puffin colony, arguably the largest in the Faroe Islands and possibly the biggest in the world. Our journey takes us directly through this thriving bird sanctuary. The village that once inhabited almost 200 people is now reduced to around a dozen living year-around inhabitants. Nevertheless, the charm of the village remains intact, with its impeccably kept homes, traditional turf roofs, and a delightful palette of colours.
