Cove Rock

Cove Rock (61°54′S 57°48′W / 61.9°S 57.8°W / -61.9; -57.8) is a low offshore rock 3 nautical miles (6 km) west of North Foreland, King George Island, in the South Shetland Islands. Charted by DI in 1937 and called descriptively Cone Rock; the spelling Cove Rock, probably through error in transcription, appeared in a Hydrographic Office publication, 1942, and became established.
