The Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache, sailed through the channel and named it for Georg von Neumayer.
Neumayer Channel is renowned for its dramatic cliffs, drawing tourists to the region.
It is often likened to a maze due to its inverted S-shape, where both the entrance and exits feature sharp bends, creating a challenging and scenic navigational experience.
These intrusive rocks are overlain by basaltic-trachyandesitic lavas and tuffs.
