We are heading to the Faroe 's this summer and wondered if any other OCC members might be in the area? We will be heading north from Ardfern in early June and returning to Craobh Haven in July on board Shimshal. We would love to meet up with other OCC boats along the way. Simon & Sally.

Simon,
The only place we berthed for free was Tvoroyri on the island of Suduroy. This is a fishing harbour (nicely sheltered) with few facilities for the visiting yachtsman but a very helpful harbour master. You can also clear customs here on arrival if you want to explore the island before going on to Torshavn. However, you are then faced with something of a logistical challenge - taxi to the ferry terminal on the south side of the fjord, ferry to Torshavn, taxi or bus to the airport etc. Torshavn, although expensive for your purposes, would certainly be your safest, worry-free berth with easy access to/from the airport.

Sorry not to be able to be more helpful,
