Enniberg Wall
Faroe Islands · Faroe Islands
Enniberg Wall descends from one of Europe's tallest sea cliffs — 754 metres above the surface — and continues as a sheer underwater precipice that plunges to extraordinary depths in the North Atlantic. The wall is carpeted in dense communities of dead man's fingers soft coral, plumose anemones, and encrusting sponges in every shade of orange and white, sustained by the powerful tidal currents that funnel between the Faroe Islands. Atlantic puffins and northern gannets dive from the cliff face above into the same column of water where divers descend, creating a remarkable spectacle of seabird and diver sharing the same environment.
