  • Sub–sea tunnels – the tunnels are unique experiences often featuring artistic installations and stunning underwater views.

The Sandoyartunnilin, a newly opened subsea tunnel in the Faroe Islands, is a remarkable feat of engineering and a unique culture experience. At a depth of over 150 meters, the tunnel is adorned with a captivating art installation that combines folklore, history, and modern technology.

When you’re travelling, you can enjoy the colorful lights that create images of historical figures and local animals. These images were created by a Faroese artist, Edward Fuglo. Another special thing is, there is a soundtrack playing in the tunnel which is composed by Sunleif Rasmussen. These combinations of Art and Music make an immersive journey for travellers.

The Faroe Islands have a new tunnel under the sea called the Sandoyartunnilin. It connects two islands, Streymoy and Sandoy. It makes people to easier to travel between these islands.

The CEO of the tunnel, Teitur Samuelsen, explained, “The first known painter in the Faroe Islands, Díðrikur á Skarvanesi, came from Sandoy in the 19th Century and it was always our idea to connect his origin story to the tunnel,” and he said, “He painted moon pigeons, so the pictures of the birds and the other symbols break up the monotony of this long subsea tunnel.” More than that, he said, the feeling is to evoke a sense of ceremony and national memory, less of simply motoring somewhere under the Atlantic Ocean in the dark.

Helga Hilmarsdóttir, a local who lives on Sandoy with her husband and children said, “The tunnel has given everyone new purpose and is helping create new life in villages like ours – people don’t want to spend all their lives milking cows or herding sheep anymore,” she said.
