Tórshavn

The colourful capital of the Faroe Islands, home to the historic Tinganes peninsula and a vibrant harbour-side dining scene.

Tórshavn is one of the cloudiest cities in the world, averaging over 260 rainy days per year. Summers are mild (9–13°C) with near-midnight sun, while winters bring fierce Atlantic storms and as little as 5 hours of daylight. Wind is a constant — average speeds of 7 m/s make windproof layers essential year-round.
