Digges Cove (Bulgarian: залив Дигс, romanized: zaliv Digges, IPA: ['zaliv 'digs]) is the 1.77 km wide cove indenting for 860 m the north coast of Elephant Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica southeast of Eratosthenes Point. It was formed as a result of the retreat of Snellius Glacier in the late 20th century. The area was visited by early 19th century sealers.

  • Die Digges Cove (englisch; bulgarisch залив Дигс saliw Digs) ist eine 1,77 km breite und 860 m lange Bucht an der Nordküste von Elephant Island im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Sie liegt 18 km südöstlich des Kap Yelcho und 10,14 km westlich des Point Wild. Die Bucht entstand durch den Rückzug des Snellius-Gletschers am Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts. Ihre Einfahrt wird nordwestlich durch den Eratosthenes Point begrenzt. Britische Wissenschaftler kartierten sie zuletzt 2009. Die bulgarische Kommission für Antarktische Geographische Namen benannte sie im April 2021 nach dem englischen Mathematiker und Landvermesser (≈1515–≈1559), dem Erfinder des Theodoliten. (de)

The feature is named after Leonard Digges (c. 1515–1559), a British mathematician and surveyor, inventor of the theodolite; in association with other names in the area deriving from the early development or use of geodetic instruments and methods.
