From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Buckley Bay ( 68°22′S, 148°20′E) is an embayment formed between the east side of the Ninnis Glacier Tongue and the mainland of Antarctica. It was discovered by the Australasian Antarctic Expedition (1911-1914) under Douglas Mawson, who named it for George Buckley of New Zealand, a patron of the expedition.
