Fårö Island is in the central Baltic Sea, southeast of Sweden (just north of Gotland), and administrated by Sweden.

The Faroe Islands (or the Faeroes, as that’s another acceptable spelling, as used in the British “shipping forecast”) are in the Atlantic Ocean south of the Norwegian Sea, north-northwest of Scotland, and owned by Denmark.

Farø is a tiny island in Denmark proper, between Zealand and Falster.
