Welcome to Streymoy and Tórshavn

Streymoy is the largest of the Faroe Islands with an area of 374 km2 and a population of aprox. 22.000. Our capital - Tórshavn - is here, which today includes almost half of the island Streymoy and the islands Hestur, Koltur and Nólsoy. The centre of the Faroes Islands is in Tórshavn.

Tórshavn has a lot to offer for the guests. We have history, culture, nature and nightlife. Streymoy is, however, not only Tórshavn. Large and small villages, fjords, straits, valleys, high mountains and the rivers. Tórshavn is a transport hub with daily connections to any part of the country and it is possible to return the same day.

With this home page, the Tourist Information Centre offers information about everything Tórshavn and Streymoy have to offer.

Possibly the world's highest wave measured in the Faroe Islands
The highest significant wave height measured in Faroese oceans before the recent storm was a bit more than 14 meters, but on the Friday night after 25 November, the measuring devices on a buoy located to the west of the Faroe Islands measured the significant wave height to be a staggering 19.7 meters. This may very well be a world record.
