Notes |
Belgica information (en): Group of islands extending NW from Aguda Point for 1.5 mi across the entrance to Hidden Bay, off the W coast of Graham Land. First charted by the BelgAE under Gerlache, 1897-99. So named by the UK-APC in 1958 because they form a screen across the entrance to Hidden Bay. http://geonames.usgs.gov |
