This name originates from New Zealand. It is part of the New Zealand Gazetteer and the SCAR Composite Gazetteer of Antarctica.
A small inlet in the eastern portion of the Bay of Whales, indenting the Ross Ice Shelf. Little America, the base for the Byrd AE, 1928 - 30 and 1933 - 35, was located at the head of this inlet. Although forward movement of the ice shelf is constantly changing the detailed configuration of the Bay of Whales, the general outlines remain essentially unchanged. Named by Byrd on 1 January 1929 for the village in France where he landed and was most hospitably treated at the end of his Trans-Atlantic flight in 1927.
