John Beach (Livingston Island)

John Beach (62°39′23″S 60°45′44″W / 62.65639°S 60.76222°W / -62.65639; -60.76222) is a beach on the west side of the entrance to Walker Bay on the south coast of Livingston Island, in the South Shetland Islands.

[1] The beach was roughly charted and named "Black Point" by Robert Fildes in 1820–22.

As there was already a Black Point on Livingston Island, this name was rejected and a new one substituted by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee in 1958.
