Mykines Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The small village on Mykines only has about a dozen year long residents. The helicopter supplies them twice a week and takes them to one of the other islands if they have the need. During the summer many visitors come to see the birds that nest on the island or one of the islets close by. There are also summer residents many who have family history on the island. This old stone building houses supplies and equipment.

Smallest island I have ever been. Beautiful!
The cliffs of the island of Mykines in the Faroe Islands. Quite a view to and from the small harbor there.
The island of Mykines is known for nesting Puffins and other seabirds. It is a spectacular place to visit. The hiking was a bit challenging for me as were the heights, but the views were worth it.

Vista of a village. See how stunning the land is here?

I took this photo at Sørvágsvatn in the Faroe Islands! This isn't a view of the lake itself or the iconic cliffs. But a view of lesser known cliffs right by the lake itself. And the body of water you see is the deep sea :). And the lake was to the right of me. To see both at the same time is a very cool sight, as well. But I like this close-up view the best. Can really get a feel of how otherworldly it is! As the classic views of the lake. I hiked about 4 KM to get to Sørvágsvatn and it was definitely worth it! Some other tourists as well, but not nearly as many as the peak of summer. I'm glad I went on that late August day! One of my favorite memories of 2018.
