Admiralty Bay (South Shetland Islands) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Admiralty Bay (South Shetland Islands)
Admiralty Bay or Lasserre Bay is an irregular bay, wide at its entrance between Demay Point and Martins Head, indenting the southern coast of King George Island for , in the South Shetland Islands of Antarctica. The name appears on a map of 1822 by Captain George Powell, a British sailor, and is now established in international usage. The Henryk Arctowski Polish Antarctic Station is situated on the bay, as is the Comandante Ferraz Brazilian Antarctic Base. It has been designated an Antarctic Specially Managed Area (ASMA 1). ==Description== The bay has three fjords: Martel, Mackellar, and Ezcurra. A mariner's guide to the region pronounced the bay to have the best anchorage of any in the South Shetlands, "being well-sheltered all around and having moderate depths over a bottom of good, stiff clay. Ice from the glaciers is frequently troublesome." 〔United States Hydrographic Office. ''South America Pilot'', Government Printing Office, 1916.〕
