Undine Harbour

[2] On 12 March 1823 Captain James Weddell with his two vessels, the Jane and the Beaufoy anchored in Adventure Bay, South Georgia, touching land for the first time in five months.

He wrote that "it was not a country the most indulgent", but they did find some bitter green herbs which helped to prevent scurvy, and they found abundant young albatrosses that provided excellent fresh meat.

Weddell's expedition left in the middle of April, heading for the Falkland Islands, where they spent the winter.

A valley extending east-northeast for nearly 3 nautical miles (5.6 km; 3.5 mi) from the head of Undine Harbor.

A small group of rocks 0.5 nautical miles (0.93 km; 0.58 mi) east of Cape Paryadin.

The South Georgia Survey (SGS) of 1955–56 reported that "rocks" is a more suitable descriptive term for this group.

Surveyed by the SGS in the period 1951-57, and named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee (UK-APC) for Søren Olsen, gunner of the South Georgia Whaling Company at Leith Harbour, 1926–30, 1933–39 and 1945-53.

A small bay 0.5 nautical miles (0.93 km; 0.58 mi) southwest of Undine Harbour.

Named by the UK-APC for Captain Sinclair Begg, Master of the whaling transport Coronda, 1933–40; Master of the Southern Opal, 1945–46; Manager on Southern Harvester, 1946–47; and Manager of the South Georgia Whaling Company station at Leith Harbour, 1947-51.
