Lake Sandsvatn

The largest lake on Sandoy island and the third largest lake overall in the Faroe Islands is Sandsvatn. Between the towns of Sandur and Skopun is the lake. It is 640 meters broad and 2 kilometers long. The lake is well-liked by kayakers and sports fishers and is tucked away in peaceful surroundings. Small valleys surround visitors, giving Sandoy an appearance that is softer and rounder than most of the other islands in the interior. You may appreciate the diverse bird life and lush vegetation surrounding the lake on Sandoy, the most fertile island in the Faroe Islands. A fantastic and enjoyable activity is kayaking on Lake Sandsvatn. You will be able to see firsthand the pristine natural splendors of this beloved lake on Sandoy thanks to this.


At the base by the riverbank right outside the village of Sandur, you can pick up a kayak. This expedition is ideal for paddlers of any skill level who want to experience something genuinely unique while visiting the Faroe Islands. Every kayak is a single-person vessel. You may paddle about the lake for hours while taking in the picturesque vista of the soggy river bank and low mountains that surround Lake Sandsvatn.
