Port Foster

Port Foster is one of the safest harbours in Antarctica, located in Deception Island in the South Shetland Islands.
==History==
The harbour was known to sealers as early as 1820, and in its early history was called ''Port Williams'', after Capt. William Smith's brig, the ''Williams'', or ''Yankee Harbor'', because of the number of American sealers who harboured there.
A few years later it was named Port Foster after Henry Foster, commander of the ''HMS Chanticleer'', who made pendulum and magnetic observations in this harbour in 1829. The latter name has become established by usage, while the former have remained for other features in the same archipelago — Williams Point and Yankee Harbor.
