The Faroe Islands are home to unique and often vulnerable wildlife. While it’s tempting to get close for a photo, remember that these animals need space to thrive.

Keep Your Distance
Whether it’s seabirds, seals, or sheep, never approach animals too closely. Stress can affect their behaviour and breeding, especially during nesting season.

Don’t Pick Plants or Flowers
The local flora is part of a delicate ecosystem. Enjoy wild plants with your eyes, not your hands.

Observe Quietly and Patiently
Move slowly and stay quiet when observing animals. Let them act naturally – and you’ll be rewarded with a more authentic experience.

Wildlife encounters should never come at the cost of nature’s wellbeing. The best memories are the ones made with care and respect.
