From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hanusse Bay (66°57′S, 67°30′W) is a broad bay, 20 miles (32 km) long in a general north-south direction, lying between the northern portions of Adelaide Island and Arrowsmith Peninsula. It was discovered and first charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908-10, under Charcot, and named by him for the director of the Hydrographic Service of the French Navy.
