Helicopter flight over the Faroe Islands - Mykines in the background

 

 

Island of Mykines

Westernmost island of the Faroese archipelago with 20 inhabitants and hundreds of thousands of seabirds. There may be just a couple of sunny days a year, and it is the most rewarding experience if you hit the island on one of them.
