Húsavík (Danish: Husevig) is an old village located on the east of the island of Sandoy, in Húsavík Municipality, Faroe Islands.

In the centre of Húsavík there is a ruin called 'Heimi á Garõi'. It is said to be the remains of a farm that was built by the 'Lady of the House in Húsavík'. She was a strict and wealthy lady who lived in the 14th century. She owned all the land in Húsavík and also had some properties in Norway. Legend has it that she buried two servants alive. It is also said that she got all her wealth when she sold a golden horn to the King. The story goes that she found the golden horn in the ground, after dreaming of its location.

The village has a beautiful white beach as well as several well preserved old stone houses with the iconic grass-roof look. Húsavík lies in a bay from where you will see no other islands or villages. The only sight from here is the nearby mountains and the North Atlantic Ocean. The beach in Húsavík is a great place to play and spend time. Sometimes surfers visit Húsavík, and we've heard that Húsavík is a good place to surf (for experienced surfers).

The church was inaugurated in 1863 and is built from stone. The church is spacios and was originally build for the villages Húsavík, Dalur and Skarvanes, until Dalur got a church in 1957. The walls on the inside are chalked, otherwise everything is made from timber. The church got a new altarpiece painted by Svend Havstein Mikkelsen, when it was renovated in the 90's.

On the mole you will find reliefs by Tróndur Patursson, made in collaboration with J&K Petersen when the boat basin was built. The art on the relief is connected to the ocean, with boats, mermaids, whales and so on.
