Suárez Glacier also known as Petzval Glacier is a glacier flowing into the small cove between Skontorp Cove and Sturm Cove on the west coast of Graham Land.

The Pointers is a pair of rocks off the northwest coast of Rugged Island, lying between Eddystone Rocks and Start Point, Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica.
Foyn Harbor is an anchorage between Nansen Island and Enterprise Island in Wilhelmina Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. It was surveyed by M.C. Lester and T.W. Bagshawe in 1921–22, and was named by whalers in the area after the whaling factory Svend Foyn, which was moored here during 1921–22.
Goetel Glacier is a glacier flowing south between Ullmann Spur and the Precious Peaks into Martel Inlet, Admiralty Bay, on King George Island in the South Shetland Islands.

Miethe Glacier is a glacier 3 nautical miles (6 km) long, flowing northwest into Gerlache Strait to the south of Mount Banck, on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The glacier appears on an Argentine government chart of 1952.

Lucchitta Glacier is a glacier about 20 nautical miles (37 km) long flowing south from the Hudson Mountains of Antarctica into Pine Island Bay. It was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names after geologist Baerbel K. Lucchitta of the United States Geological Survey, Flagstaff, Arizona, a specialist in the use of satellite imagery for geological and glaciological studies from the early 1980s to the early 2000s (decade), and one of the pioneers in the use of imagery for glacier velocity measurements in Antarctica.
Melchior Harbor is a small harbor in the Melchior Islands, Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica, formed by the semi-circular arrangement of Delta, Alpha, Beta, Kappa and Gamma Islands. The name, derived from the name of the island group, was probably given by Discovery Investigations personnel who roughly surveyed the harbor in 1927. The harbor was later surveyed by Argentine expeditions in 1942, 1943 and 1948.
Thomas Cove is the cove south of Haigh Point, Danco Coast. It was first surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1956-57. The cove was named in association with Haigh Point, by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1985. It was named after Joan Ena Thomas, who was the personal assistant to the Secretary of the UK-APC Polar Regions Section at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, from 1948-62.
