False Bay (62°43′S 60°22′W / 62.717°S 60.367°W) is a bay 4 miles (6.4 km) long, which lies between Barnard Point and Miers Bluff on the south side of Livingston Island, in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. The glaciers Hurd Ice Cap, Huntress, Ruen Icefall, Peshtera and Charity feed the bay. It was probably first entered and charted by Captain Nathaniel Palmer in November 1820, and was likely named because of the possibility in thick weather of confusion between this feature and nearby South Bay, where Johnsons Dock was frequented by the early sealers.

dbo:abstract
  • Die False Bay (englisch für Falsche Bucht, in Argentinien und Chile gleichbedeutend Bahía Falsa) ist eine Bucht an der Südküste der Livingston-Insel im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Ihre Einfahrt wird durch den Barnard Point und das Miers Bluff markiert. Der US-amerikanische Seefahrer Nathaniel Palmer fuhr im November 1820 in dichtem Nebel in diese Bucht in der irrtümlichen Annahme, es handelte sich um die benachbarte South Bay. Diese Begebenheit gab der Bucht ihren Namen. (de)
