The Bird Cliffs of Vestmanna
Thursday & Sundays – 1495dkk
The boat glides close to the sheer cliffs where puffins noisily debate on the cliffs. Their chirps mix with the deep growls of guillemots and the lapping of the waves. A puffin swiftly dives under the sea surface, emerging with 10 small fish in its colorful beak. With a heavy flap, it ascends to its cave, 600 meters up. Above, on the green slopes, a flock of sheep grazes, oblivious to the heights or the grandeur below. A curious seal pops its head above water, looking around. Just a short sail from the harbor of Vestmanna, we find ourselves beneath one of Europe’s most impressive bird cliffs.
