Veiled Sea

The Veiled Sea is the name of the vast sea that lies to the north and west of Kalimdor. It is the location of the former night elven homeland of Teldrassil, and the group of islands known as the Azuremyst Isles — where the draenei inter-planar vessel named The Exodar crash-landed.
Giant turtles, sea turtles and krakens are known to live in the Veiled Sea.World of Warcraft: Traveler, chapter 4 & 12
After the Great Sundering, both, portions of Zoram Strand and Blackfathom Deeps in Ashenvale sunk under the Veiled Sea.World of Warcraft: Exploring Azeroth: Kalimdor, pg. 71
It is named after the fog that was raised by the night elves to shroud Kalimdor from outsiders until the Third War.World of Warcraft: Exploring Azeroth: Kalimdor, pg. 53
Some time after the Cataclysm, a battle between the Wavestrider and the Inevitable occurred away from the coast of Feralas, with the former being destroyed.World of Warcraft: Traveler, chapter 10 - 11

==Connection with the Forbidding Sea==
On rare occasions when Azeroth's backside can be seen, such as on the globes in the Halls of Lightning, it is shown that the Veiled Sea connects with the Forbidding Sea which stretches across the eastern shore of the Eastern Kingdoms. There is little (if any) mention of this 'backside sea' in the lore as the Warcraft game development has traditionally concerned Azeroth's front side (the continents surrounding the Great Sea). In theory, the backside sea could be the location of yet undiscovered continents.
In Return of the Nightsquall it is stated clearly that beyond the sea is another continent, specifically this is further confirmed by the existence of the Arathi Empire, who sent an expedition back to the front side of the world where they established the colony of Mereldar in Hallowfall in the caverns below Khaz Algar.
