Tlachene Cove (Bulgarian : залив Тлачене, ‘Zaliv Tlachene’ \'za-liv 'tla-che-ne\) is the 4 km wide cove indenting for 3.6 km Loubet Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula.

A geographic coordinate system is a coordinate system that enables every location on Earth to be specified by a set of numbers, letters or symbols. The coordinates are often chosen such that one of the numbers represents a vertical position and two or three of the numbers represent a horizontal position; alternatively, a geographic position may be expressed in a combined three-dimensional Cartesian vector. A common choice of coordinates is latitude, longitude and elevation. To specify a location on a plane requires a map projection.
