It’s like being in an episode of Game of Thrones. The Faroe Islands has a magnetic attraction for landscape photographers, and for a good reason. Battered by the elements, towering cliffs rise from the deep sea. Huge waves are constantly pounding the shoreline, creating amazing formations. Isolated in the Atlantic Ocean, halfway between Norway and Iceland, National Geographic named the Faroe Islands the most authentic and unspoiled group of islands in the world. This comes as no surprise to us.

Dynamic, constantly changing light and weather makes these islands magical for photography. We can experience 4 seasons in an hour. One moment it might be raining, the next we have warm sunshine on our faces. Turn around and it might be snowing or hailing. It’s fascinating and beautiful. In late July the Faroe Islands is stunningly green and fresh. Puffins can be found and the temperature makes it a really comfortable time to visit this magical place.

Day 1: Arrival at Vagar Airport.

Upon your arrival at Vágar Airport, we’ll be there to greet you. After meeting the group, we’ll embark on a scenic 1.5-hour drive to our first destination, the charming village of Tórshavn. Upon arrival, we’ll check in at a peaceful design hotel, featuring a natural grass roof that blends harmoniously with the surrounding green countryside. After settling in, we’ll head out to one of the island’s most dramatic seascape locations for a breathtaking sunset photography session.

Day 2 – 4: Enjoy the adventure

The following days we will explore the incredible areas in the northern parts of the Faroe Islands. Stunning locations are scattered around and we will be moving around in our van trying to maximize our photography options. The weather and light conditions are constantly changing and fabulous light can be expected at all times. We will make sure we are at the best locations at the best times! Places like Tjørnuvik and Saksun are on the list, in addition to many incredible unnamed spots.

Day 4 – 8: Vagar – adventure continues

We remain flexible throughout the trip, adapting our schedule to the best weather and lighting conditions. Our hotel is ideally located near an array of epic photography spots, including Leitisvatn, Gasadalur, Tindholmur, Bøur, and Sornfell Mountain. These breathtaking locations are simply beyond words and must be experienced in person! On the final day, we’ll enjoy a hearty breakfast at the hotel before saying our goodbyes.
