Queen Maud Bay
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Queen Maud Bay () is a V-shaped bay 2.5 miles (4.0 km) wide at the entrance, lying immediately north of Nunez Peninsula along the south coast of South Georgia. Roughly charted in 1819 by a Russian expedition under Bellingshausen, it was named prior to 1922 for Queen Maud, wife of King Haakon VII of Norway, probably by Norwegian whalers who frequented this coast.
