For the fastest connection

For the fastest connection

The smaller the distance, the faster your connection. If you want the fastest VPN connection possible, connect to the server closest to you.

For even more security

For even more security

Connect to one of our pre-set MultiHop locations and improve your security even more. MultiHop puts your connection through two servers instead of one. And with Dynamic MultiHop, you can even select the server pairs.

For avoiding censorship

For avoiding censorship

Staying in countries where governments censor the internet infringes on the right to freedom of expression and speech. Use obfuscated servers to avoid censorship and explore the free web wherever you are.

Data protection from snoopers

Data protection from snoopers

Problem: Your online activity benefits big data companies, your internet service provider (ISP), and the government.

Solution: A VPN encrypts (hides under code) your internet traffic and protects it from any extra pairs of eyes prying on what you do online.

Complete privacy online

Problem: Your IP address and location can help data giants build profiles on you (your interests, opinions, health searches, etc.)

Solution: A VPN changes your IP address and hides your location so that no one knows where you’re browsing from or who you are.

Complete privacy online
Safe access to public Wi-Fi

Safe access to public Wi-Fi

Problem: Public Wi-Fi is lovely, but it’s not secure, and Wi-Fi hotspots are easily faked and compromised by hackers.

Solution: A VPN connection encrypts your data before it leaves your device, making your connection impossible to spy on.

Security for your home fortress

Problem: With Wi-Fi devices like phones, PCs, Roombas, smart TVs, and fridges, you’re easily exposed to cyberthreats.

Solution: Install a VPN on your router to protect your entire home at once.

Premium vs. free VPN

You should stay away from free VPNs.

The best-case scenario when using a free VPN is getting slow connection speeds and an overwhelming amount of intrusive ads.

In the worst-case scenario, your data may be sold to third parties, and your device may be infected through malware or malvertising.

You will always be better off with a premium VPN like Surfshark, both in terms of the quality of service and your online privacy.

FAQ

Is VPN use legal?

Yes, VPNs are legal in all European countries. However, it’s safe to say that doing anything illegal with a VPN is still illegal. 

Surfshark does not encourage using a VPN in any way that would potentially violate the law or Terms of Service of other service providers.

Do I need a VPN in Europe?

Yes. As many European organizations deal with incoming hacking attempts, it’s crucial to take cybersecurity seriously. A VPN ensures your privacy while browsing, streaming, and working, whether you’re connected to a public network or a password-protected home internet.

Can you be tracked if you use a VPN in Europe?

No. A VPN protects you from IP address tracking or internet browsing pattern tracking. Also, if you use premium VPN providers like Surfshark, neither the government nor your internet service provider will see that you’re using a VPN. Learn more about what a VPN is and how it works.

Can you use a US VPN in Europe?

Yes, you can connect to a US VPN server from Europe if you wish to. But keep in mind that the bigger distance between you and the server results in a slower connection speed, so choosing a nearby server would be better for performance.

Which VPN has European servers?

Surfshark has more than 1500+ servers in Europe. They’re spread across 58 cities in 46 countries, so you’re sure to find a location that suits your needs.
