Busen Point

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Busen Point or Busen Peninsula (54°9′S, 36°33′W) is a point forming the southeast side of the entrance to Stromness Bay, on the north coast of South Georgia. It is between Cumberland West Bay and Stromness Bay.[1]

The point was known at a much earlier date, but the name was first used on the charts based upon the 1927-29 survey by DI personnel. Named for the head of Husvik Harbour in Stromness Bay.
