divul

Divul is a small town in Faroe Islands, a North Atlantic archipelago between Iceland and Norway. Located on the southern coast of Streymoy, the largest island of the Faroe Islands, Divul has a population of less than 100 inhabitants.

Divul is situated near the village of Sandavágur, and both communities share a common history and geography. The town's name is derived from the Old Norse language, where "divul" means "thick forest". Although the town is not situated near any major forests, it was likely named due to the presence of dense vegetation in the surrounding area.

Divul is a typical example of a Faroese village, with a strong focus on traditional architecture, fishing, and sheep farming. The town's economy is largely based on these industries, which provide a livelihood for the local inhabitants. Divul is also popular among tourists, who visit the island to experience the unique culture and breathtaking natural beauty of the Faroe Islands.

The town has no significant facilities, such as schools, shops, or restaurants, as it is part of the nearby village of Sandavágur. However, the nearby town of Saksun offers basic amenities, including grocery stores, cafes, and a church. Divul is connected to the rest of the Faroe Islands via a narrow road and bus service, providing easy access to the country's capital, Tórshavn. Despite its small size, Divul remains an important part of the island's history and culture.
