Faroe Islands shine like green stones on a gray back cloth. The 18 Faroe Islands are undeniably beautiful in a North Atlantic, buffeted-by-gales and tossed-by-sea kind of way. They are one of those remote places that most people would have trouble spotting on a map, and they get little international press. Despite the remote reputation, they aren't that far away if you're in Europe or Iceland, and some of the most spectacular parts lie within easy reach of the island of Vagar. Flight time from Reykjavik is one hour and from Copenhagen its only two hours.
