Edward VIII Bay is a bay about 20 miles (32 km) in extent, located between Edward VIII Plateau (a dome-shaped, ice-covered peninsula near Magnet Bay) and the Øygarden Group of islands. The head of the bay is occupied by the Edward VIII Ice Shelf. It was discovered in 1936 by Discovery Investigations personnel on the RRS William Scoresby, and named for King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom.[1]
