Where is the Tórshavn cruise port?
Most ships berth alongside the eastern quay (Eystari Kai) in the Eystaravag basin, a flat few hundred metres from Tinganes and the old town. Larger ships use the deeper Bursatangi berth, about 15–20 minutes' walk away, and smaller ones sometimes use Vestari Kai. When berthing isn't possible, ships anchor off the breakwater and tender passengers to a sheltered landing stage near the centre.
