A successful cruise visit

The expedition cruise ship Ultramarine from Quark Expeditions anchored outside the village Funningur Thursday morning and the passengers were tendered ashore in zodiacs.

The cruise calls in Funningur are arranged in a unique way where the organizers focus on ensuring a social sustainable project. The cruise visit was a great success for everyone. There are about 46 people living in Funningur and the maximum number of allowed calls is 3 ships per year. The visits are prepared by the local people in Funningur with good help from Visit Runavík and the Port of Runavík. 

We wish Ultramarine, its crew, staff and passengers good luck on their further voyage to Jan Mayen. The ship's agent in the Faroe Islands is Faroe Ship.
