Kendall Rocks

The Kendall Rocks (63°30′S 59°49′W / 63.500°S 59.817°W / -63.500; -59.817) are a group of pillar-shaped rocks, lying 3 nautical miles (6 km) north of Tower Island in the Palmer Archipelago, Antarctica.

The name "Kendall Group" appears northwest of this position on a chart based upon work by a British expedition under Commander Henry Foster, Royal Navy, 1828–31, but it was later found that no islands exist there.

The name Kendall Rocks has subsequently been applied to these pillar-shaped rocks discovered in 1838 by a French expedition under Captain Jules Dumont d'Urville.
