The geography of Antarctica is dominated by its south polar location and, thus, by ice. The Antarctic continent, located in the Earth's southern hemisphere, is centered asymmetrically around the South Pole and largely south of the Antarctic Circle. It is washed by the Southern Ocean or, depending on definition, the southern Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. It has an area of more than 14.2 million km2. Antarctica is the largest ice desert in the world.
Booth Island is a Y-shaped island, 5 nautical miles long and rising to 980 metres (3,220 ft) in the northeast part of the Wilhelm Archipelago, Antarctica.
Hope Bay is a bay 3 nautical miles long and 2 nautical miles wide, indenting the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula and opening on Antarctic Sound.
Vega Island is an island in Antarctica, 17 nautical miles long and 6 nautical miles wide, which is the northernmost of the James Ross Island group and lies in the west part of Erebus and Terror Gulf. It is separated from James Ross Island by Herbert Sound and from Trinity Peninsula by Prince Gustav Channel.
The Aviator Glacier is a major valley glacier in Antarctica that is over 60 nautical miles long and 5 nautical miles wide, descending generally southward from the plateau of Victoria Land along the west side of Mountaineer Range, and entering Lady Newnes Bay between Cape Sibbald and Hayes Head where it forms a floating tongue.

Hughes Bay is a bay lying between Cape Sterneck and Cape Murray along the west coast of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The Prince Gustav Channel is a strait about 80 nautical miles long and from 4 to 15 nautical miles wide, separating James Ross Island and Vega Island from the Trinity Peninsula, Antarctica.
The Rockefeller Mountains are a group of low-lying, scattered granite peaks and ridges, almost entirely snow-covered, standing 30 nautical miles south-southwest of the Alexandra Mountains on the Edward VII Peninsula of Antarctica.
The Mariner Glacier is a major glacier over 60 nautical miles long, descending southeast from the plateau of Victoria Land, Antarctica, between Mountaineer Range and Malta Plateau, and terminating at Lady Newnes Bay, Ross Sea, where it forms the floating Mariner Glacier Tongue.
Penguin Bank is the name given to a now-submerged shield volcano of the Hawaiian Islands. Its coral-capped remains lie immediately west of the island of Molokaʻi, under relatively shallow water.
The Tabarin Peninsula is a peninsula 15 nautical miles long and 5 to 12 nautical miles wide, lying south of the trough between Hope Bay and Duse Bay and forming the east extremity of Trinity Peninsula in the Antarctic Peninsula.
Taylor Valley77°37′S163°00′E is an ice-free valley about 18 nautical miles long, once occupied by the receding Taylor Glacier. It lies north of the Kukri Hills between the Taylor Glacier and New Harbour in Victoria Land, Antarctica. Taylor Valley is the southernmost of the three large McMurdo Dry Valleys in the Transantarctic Mountains, located west of McMurdo Sound.
The Gothic Mountains is a group of mountains, 20 nautical miles long, in the Queen Maud Mountains of Antarctica, located west of Watson Escarpment and bounded by Scott Glacier, Albanus Glacier, and Griffith Glacier.
Otter Highlands is a group of peaks and ridges extending northwest-southeast for 17 nautical miles from Mount Lowe to Wyeth Heights, located west of Blaiklock Glacier and forming the west end of the Shackleton Range. Surveyed by the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition in 1957. Named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) in 1972 after the De Havilland Otter aircraft which supported the CTAE.
Mount Darnley is a mountain, 1,100 metres (3,600 ft) high, in the south-central portion of Bristol Island in the South Sandwich Islands off Antarctica. It was charted in 1930 by Discovery Investigations personnel on the Discovery II, who named it for E.R. Darnley.
Hektoria Glacier is a glacier flowing south from the area around Mount Johnston between Mount Quandary and Zagreus Ridge into Vaughan Inlet next west of Brenitsa Glacier and east of Green Glacier, on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula.
Zavera Snowfield is the glacier extending 18 kilometres (11 mi) in a north-south direction and 16 kilometres (9.9 mi) in an east-west direction on southern Trinity Peninsula in Graham Land, Antarctica. It is located in the northeast foothills of Detroit Plateau, south of Diplock Glacier, north of Mount Wild and northeast of Kopito Ridge. It drains into Prince Gustav Channel in Weddell Sea. The glacier is named after the Bulgarian liberation uprising of ‘Velchova Zavera’ in 1835.
Bristol Island is an uninhabited island in the South Sandwich Islands, an archipelago in the Southern Ocean. The island is almost entirely surrounded by ice cliffs and largely covered with ice. It features both the oldest rocks of this archipelago and an active volcano that last erupted in 2016.
