Bounded by Comrie Glacier to the south and a tributary to Luke Glacier to the east. Featuring Mount Bigo at its southwest extremity and Mount Perchot in its central part. Precipitous, partly ice-free northwest slopes drained by the glaciers Muldava, Nesla and Kolosh.

Nesla Glacier is the 6.2 km long and 2 km wide glacier on Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the west side of Antarctic Peninsula, situated southwest of Muldava Glacier and north of Kolosh Glacier. It drains the west slopes of Lisiya Ridge west of Mount Perchot, and flows westwards into Bigo Bay next north of the terminus of Kolosh Glacier.
Kolosh Glacier is the 6.7 km long and 3.6 km wide glacier on Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the west side of Antarctic Peninsula, situated south of Nesla Glacier. It drains the west slopes of Lisiya Ridge north of Mount Bigo, and flows northwestwards into Bigo Bay next south of the terminus of Nesla Glacier.
Velingrad Peninsula is the ice-covered peninsula projecting 22.5 km in northwest direction from Graham Coast on the west side of Antarctic Peninsula. Bounded by Barilari Bay to the northeast and Holtedahl Bay to the southwest, and separated from Biscoe Islands to the northwest by Grandidier Channel. Its base is surmounted by Chiren Heights. The UK station Prospect Point operated at the west extremity of the peninsula in 1957–59.
Chavez Island is an island 3 nautical miles (6 km) long which rises to 550 metres (1,800 ft), lying immediately west of Magnier Peninsula, which is between Leroux Bay and Bigo Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land. It was discovered and named by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot, probably for Commandant Alfonso Chaves of Ponta Delgada, Azores, but the spelling Chavez has become established through long usage.
Mount Perchot is a mountain, 2,040 m, surmounted by Lisiya Ridge, a prominent ridge extending in a general north–south direction, standing 4 nautical miles (7 km) southeast of Magnier Peaks on Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. Discovered by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, and named by Charcot for Monsieur Perchot, an acquaintance who donated seventy pairs of boots to the expedition.
The Magnier Peaks are two mountain peaks, the higher at 1,345 metres (4,410 ft), surmounting the peninsula between Leroux Bay and Bigo Bay on the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. These peaks were discovered and named by the Fourth French Antarctic Expedition, 1908–10, under Jean-Baptiste Charcot.
Leroux Bay is a bay 9 nautical miles (17 km) long in a northwest–southeast direction and averaging 5 nautical miles (9 km) wide, between Nunez Point and the narrow Magnier Peninsula surmounted by the Magnier Peaks and Lisiya Ridge, along the west coast of Graham Land, Antarctica. The glaciers Chernomen, Luke and Muldava feed the bay.
Barison Peninsula is the mostly ice-covered peninsula projecting 19 km in northwest direction from Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. It is 12 km wide between Beascochea Bay to the northeast and Leroux Bay to the southwest. The area was possibly visited by the 1897–99 Belgian expedition under Adrien de Gerlache and the 1903–05 French expedition under Jean Charcot.
Vartop Point is the point on the northwest side of the entrance to Finaeus Cove on the northeast coast of Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula.
Krasava Point is the point on the southeast side of the entrance to Finaeus Cove on the northeast coast of Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula. It is formed by an offshoot of Orbel Peak.
Finaeus Cove is the 3.8 km wide cove indenting for 2.8 km the northeast coast of Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula. It is part of Leroux Bay, entered southeast of Vartop Point and northwest of Krasava Point. The head of the cove is fed by Muldava Glacier.
Felipe Solo (Obligado) Peninsula is the heavily glaciated 13.5 km wide peninsula projecting 19.8 km in northwest direction from Danco Coast on the west side of Graham Land, Antarctica. It is bounded by Barilari Bay to the southwest and Bigo Bay to the northeast, ending in Cape Garcia to the northwest, and separated from Biscoe Islands to the northwest by Grandidier Channel.
Mraka Sound is a roughly rectangular water body extending 5 km in southeast-northwest direction and 4.2 km in southwest-northeast direction in Biscoe Islands, Antarctica. It is bounded by Renaud Island on the south, Pickwick Island on the north and Winkle Island on the northeast.
Orbel Peak is the rocky peak of elevation 784 m forming the north extremity of Lisiya Ridge on Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. It has steep and partly ice-free southeast and west slopes, and surmounts Muldava Glacier to the southwest and Leroux Bay to the north. Orbel is the ancient Thracian name of a group of mountains in Southwestern Bulgaria.
Komuniga Island is an ice-covered island extending 1.3 km in southeast-northwest direction and 1.1 km wide, the southernmost in the Correo group in Bigo Bay on Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica, off the southwest coast of Magnier Peninsula. It emerged as a distinct geographical entity following the retreat of Magnier Peninsula's ice cap in the first decade of the 21st century.
Baurene Island is an ice-covered island extending 1.24 km in southeast–northwest direction and 350 m wide, the middle of the three islands of the Correo group in Bigo Bay on Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica, off the southwest coast of Magnier Peninsula. It emerged as a distinct geographical entity following the retreat of Magnier Peninsula's ice cap in the second half of the 20th century.
