In the Faroe Islands, Ltla Dmun is a little uninhabited island located in-between Suuroy and Stóra Dmun. With an area of less than a square kilometre (247 acres), it is the tiniest of the main 18 islands and also the only one that is completely devoid of people.

Views of the island are available from the towns of Hvalba and Sandv

Lítla Dímun, a tiny island in the Faroe Islands of Denmark, casts a spell of enchantment with its unique cloud formations.

Dubbed as the island’s “personal cloud”, this ethereal white blanket floating above it, is a source of wonder for both locals and visitors.

This mossy pyramid, although small in size, creates a fairy tale-like atmosphere with its ever-present hovering cloud. The cloud, a lenticular one, forms when air moves over the island’s mountainous terrain, condensing into a stationary, vaporous shawl.

As per AccuWeather’s meteorologist Jesse Ferrell, lenticular clouds are a rare sight, as they remain in one location, continually reformed by rising air currents. Some have even mistaken these clouds as UFOs due to their ominous and stationary nature.

Lítla Dímun’s lenticular cloud often resembles a majestic little hat, but at times, it spills over the sides of the mountain, flowing into the chilly sea, expanding its magical presence even further.
