Eggjarnar (also called Skúvanes) is a place to the south of the village of Vágur on Suðuroy island in the Faroe Islands, which is known for its scenic viewpoint to the sea-cliffs of the southern part of Suðuroy all the way to Beinisvørð in the south, and to Vágseiði in the north.

The location is approached by a zig-zagging road climbing a hill, between 10 and 15 minutes' drive by road from Vágur. From the viewpoint the Beinisvørð cliffs can be seen, as well as Lopranseiði to the south and Vágseiði to the north.[1][2] The Eggjarnar cliffs rise up to about 200 metres (660 ft) in height.[3]
