  • Der Borda Rock (englisch; bulgarisch скала Борда skala Borda) ist ein in südwest-nordöstlicher Ausrichtung 270 m langer und 90 m breiter Klippenfelsen vor der Nordwestküste von Smith Island im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Er liegt 240 m nordwestlich des Gregory Point. Bulgarische Wissenschaftler kartierten ihn 2009 und 2017. Die bulgarische Kommission für Antarktische Geographische Namen benannte ihn im April 2021 nach dem französischen Mathematiker und Seemann Jean-Charles de Borda (1733–1799), dem Erfinder des nach ihm benannten Bordakreises.

Its surface area is 1.46 ha. The vicinity was visited by early 19th century sealers. The feature is named after Jean-Charles de Borda (1733-1799), a French mathematician, physicist and Navy officer who refined the reflecting circle; in association with other names in the area deriving from the early development or use of geodetic instruments and methods.
