  3. #WaterfallWednesday takes #PhotoOfTheDay to the Faroe Islands and Cape Enniberg on Viðoy.
    The aim of the small boat cruise from Hvannasund was to visit the bird colonies of Cape Enniberg (a 754 metre vertical sea cliff) but when there are sea caves why not also explore them too. Inside this one there were a couple of waterfalls cascading down the sides of the cave.
