From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jagar Islands (66°35′S, 57°20′E) is a group of small islands lying immediately off Cape Boothby, Enderby Land. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936-37, and named "Jagarane" (the hunters). The form Jagar Islands, recommended by Antarctic Names Committee of Australia (ANCA), has been adopted.
