Today, RÚV English Radio is on Heimaey.

Heimaey is the largest island of the Westman Islands, and the only one that is inhabited, with over 4,000 people living in the town of Vestmannaeyar. There are other sights on the island. Darren went to Stórhöfði, on the island's southern coast and the windiest place in Europe, and to the "new land" around the Urðaviti lighthouse in the east.
