Goose barnacles (Percebes)
Goose barnacle is a crustacean that live attached to hard surfaces of rocks and flotsam in the ocean intertidal zone. They are easily recognizable by their distinctive long and muscular stalk, which is edible and is considered a delicacy in several Mediterranean countries.
This picture was not taken exactly underwater but I think this is the section most appropriate.
