Experience two of the most magnificent attractions in the Faroe Islands within an hour. See both Drangarnir Sea Arch and Múlafossur Waterfall. The boat ride will treat you to an untouched view of these stunningly beautiful sights on the airport island.
The tour starts from the small boat marina in Sørvágur super close to the only airport in the Faroe Islands. Detailed instructions on how to get to the meeting point in Sørvágur are sent to you in the voucher received upon booking. From there you will sail close to Drangarnir Sea Arch lying majestically between the peaky Tindhólmur Islet and Vágar Island.
The awesomeness of this impressive natural wonder will give you a true understanding of why this is one of the most admired landmarks in the Faroe Islands. Weather permitting, you can be one of very few people in the world to sail through the arch itself and almost touch the dark basalt.
Joining the captain on this tour opens a special window into a truly unique place that you will never experience otherwise. Everything about this tour is remarkable.
Next, you will head to Múlafossur Waterfall. This natural attraction is a signature feature of the Faroe Islands. When sailing below secluded settlement Gásadalur, the boat will take you literally only a stone's throw away from the water that tumbles directly from the cliff's edge into the ocean. Take in the amazing views.
Expect to also get a breathtaking aerial view of Mykines Island. There will also be a good chance to experience puffins during the summer months.
You will stay in the boat during the entire trip. This will give you a unique chance to marvel at the eye-catching scenery that will be right in front of you.
Tours are made throughout the year with departure from the small boat marina in Sørvágur. The duration of the tour is one hour. This is a small group boat tour. The maximum capacity is twelve people.
Grab the opportunity to explore Drangarnir Sea Arch and Múlafossur Waterfall. Check availability by choosing a date.

The boat tour was great, the boat was good, the caption and assistant were good, the provision of waterproof jacket to put us warm was good too. Just that the weather was not so good and the sea was rough. Hope can see the scenery again in the future.

The trip was fantastic!
Easy booking, Nice people and lots of interesting info.
The Rib first took us from Sørvågur to Mulafossur. We got a real good close up to the waterfall. Returning we passed Tindholmur before we reached the famous seastack of Drangarnir.
The boat slowly took us through the great Drangur seastack and continued to follow the Vågar island for more spectacular views.
After a good while we returned to Sørvågur.
I really recommend this trip, as You get to see more in an hour than You would be able to in a full day of driving and hiking (to see Drangur close up).
This is a no brainer, just book the tour 🙂

We were in a very small group of 3 people, so it was almost like an exclusive tour and I like it a lot on the water. The view is magnificent. The only downside is there is no waiting booth on the terminal for the tour operator and I arrived quite early, so had to wait in the seating area of the nearby gas station.

Drangarnir and the surrounding area is some of the most dramatic nature I’ve ever seen, made even more so by the snowy and misty weather on the day of my tour. Don’t let winter put you off from booking this unique and fun experience!

We had a great time on the boat excursion. The breathtaking natural beauty and pleasant weather are memorable.
I believe going through the Drangarnir went a little too rapid, making it difficult to capture some excellent shots. It was still a 5 star experience!

Ellef was an awesome guide! He showed us the sites, offered to take pics of us, and brought us close to the stacks and waterfalls. He gave excellent commentary on the formation of the land and the birds we saw. The weather was cloudy but gorgeous. Smartphone with cameras should be taken at the very least. Also a warm hat, gloves, and jacket or sweater. Highly recommend – the best part of our visit to the Faroes so far!

Convenient way to see Drangarnir cliff and Múlafossur waterfall in one go, and from a different angle. If you got the time, I’d definitely recommend hiking the former and driving to the latter as views and photo opportunities are better from shore than in a (small) boat.
The trip was organized quite effortlessly and without any problems and delivered as advertised. The captain however could to good advantage have been a lot more talkative and involved. He was merely seated at the helm steering the boat from one direction to the next and then waving us goodbye. A little information about what we’re seeing and general Smalltalk would’ve come a long way. 🙂

Vi havde ikke fået at vide, at afgangen var flyttet fra Sørvagur til Bøur. Det var kun, fordi vi selv kontaktede guiden 10 min før afgang, at vi nåede det. Vejret kunne have været mere klart, men det er svært at gøre noget ved det

Our guide was very friendly and helpful. The boat and the equipment were in good condition. We could park our car directly on the quay at the marina. The tour itself is fantastic. The view is perfect and we drove through Drangarnir. Abd the weather was also great (sun). Because we drove quite fast, the cap around the ears was pleasant. We recommend warm clothes, even if it is quite warm in the harbour.

Fantastic small boat tour, we were only 5 people, the guide was kind and helpful, we drove along the coast first to Mulafossur, we could take pictures a few meters away from the waterfall. Then behind Tindholmur Island with various stops and finally round Drangarnir and through the arch (2 times !) with plenty of time to take a lot of pictures. Finally to my request, we went up to tje small houses on the south shore of Tindholmur. The guide showed us many birds along the way and made stops as long as we wished…
The best tour we enjoyed and not to be missed !!!
