Finaeus Cove

Finaeus Cove (Bulgarian: залив Финей, ‘Zaliv Finaeus’ \'za-liv fi-'ney\) is the 3.8 km wide cove indenting for 2.8 km the northeast coast of Magnier Peninsula, Graham Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula.

The head of the cove is fed by Muldava Glacier.

The feature was named by Bulgaria[1] after the French cartographer Orontius Finaeus (Oronce Finé, 1494-1555) whose 1531 world map features a vast southern continent named Terra Australis.

Finaeus Cove is centred at 65°40′50″S 64°11′40″W / 65.68056°S 64.19444°W / -65.68056; -64.19444, according to British mapping in 1971.
