Welcome to Tvoroyri
Pleasant Tvøroyri (pronounced tver-oi-ree) is Suðuroy’s main commercial centre and transport hub. Greater Tvøroyri sprawls gently along the northern slopes of Trongisvágsfjørd from pretty Froðba village (2km east) to junction-settlement Trongisvágur (2km west). The Drelnes ferry port (4km by road) is directly across the fjord. As yet streets remain un-named. Suðuroy Kunningarstova (Tourist Information; 372490; sout-inf@post.olivant.fo; 9am-4pm Mon-Fri) is based in Tvøroyri’s town hall (kommunia) but also opens a booth at the Drelnes terminal whenever a ferry arrives. Beside the post office, the bank Føroya Banki has a single ATM.
