Enybarbar (also: Enibarubaru-tō , Enubarrbarr ) is a motu of the Rongelap Atoll of the Pacific republic of the Marshall Islands .
geography
Enybarbar is on the eastern arm of the atoll. The top of the reef is very narrow at this point, as it is on the neighboring island of Kieshiechi to the east . The two islands frame the Enybarbar Pass (Enibarubaru Passage). From there the reef crown runs south to the next well-known island: Eniaetok . The island is uninhabited and has been contaminated with nuclear power since the Bravo bomb was tested for nuclear weapons .
