Skúgvoy, Sandoyar 260

About this Location

Hotspot intended for the village area and closest field parts. Only passengers by ferry from Sandur (no cars, wheelchairs are probably a problem to transport by the ferry and may be dangerous if there are any waves - and there usually are). Great Skuas have their names from this island, and there many pairs nesting in the island. However, they were hard hit by the bird flu in 2021-22, and it is yet unknown how the colony will develop. Many seabirds nesting in the steep rocksides around the island. Please follow paths when moving around on the island.Take care, sheep everywhere around on the islands, and so are their droppings.
