Description
Faroe Islands Chart 81 – Føroyar (Faroe Islands) is an official nautical chart published by Geodatastyrelsen at a scale of 1:200 000.
The map covers the Faroe Islands and surrounding waters and provides a more detailed representation than the 1:400,000 scale overview map. At a scale of 1:200,000, this serves as a port of call and transit chart, well suited for navigation between the islands and in the main waters around the archipelago.
The map shows depths, navigation installations, lighthouses, beacons, fairways and other nautical information necessary for safe navigation in the area. The Faroe Islands are characterized by steep coastlines, narrow straits, strong currents and rapidly changing weather conditions. An updated and official nautical chart is therefore an important tool for both commercial and leisure vessels operating in the waters.
The map provides a good basis for planning and executing voyages between the larger ports and through central passages. For navigation in narrow passages and when entering smaller ports, larger scale charts are recommended where available.
