It is located in the same region as the smaller but more famous and accessible Milford Sound. It took second place after Milford Sound as New Zealand's most famous tourism destination.〔''(Real Journeys rapt with Kiwi Must-Do's )'' - ''Scoop Independent News'', Tuesday 13 February 2007〕 == History == Doubtful Sound was named 'Doubtful Harbour' in 1770 by Captain Cook, who did not enter the inlet as he was uncertain whether it was navigable under sail.〔(Cook's Voyages ) (from Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand. Accessed 2008-09-12.)〕 It was later renamed Doubtful Sound by whalers and sealers, although it is not technically a sound but a fiord. A Spanish scientific expedition commanded by Alessandro Malaspina visited Doubtful Sound in February 1793 to conduct experiments measuring the force of gravity using a pendulum, a part of the effort to establish a new metric system.〔“Puerto del Pendulo, Doubtful Sound: The Malaspina Expedition’s Visit to New Zealand in Quest of the True Figure of the Earth”, ''The Globe,'' no.65, 2010, pp.1-18. Downloadable at: http://search.informit.com.au〕 The officers of the expedition, which included Felipe Bauzá y Cañas, a cartographer,〔(Doubtful Sound ) (from Te Ara Encyclopedia of New Zealand. Accessed 2008-09-12.)〕 also made the first chart of the entrance and lower parts of the Sound, naming features of it. Today these form a unique cluster of the only Spanish names on the map of New Zealand: Febrero Point, Bauza Island and the Nee Islets, Pendulo Reach, and Malaspina Reach.〔(''Science and Spycraft: The Malaspina Expedition in New Zealand and New South Wales, 1793 )'' - Robert J.
