Names that other countries have for this feature:
A beach at the W side of the entrance to Walker Bay on the S coast of Livingston Island, in the South Shetland Islands. First roughly charted and named Black Point by Robert Fildes in 1820-22. As there is already a Black Point on Livingston Island, this name was rejected and a new one substituted by the UK-APC in 1958. John Beach is named after the brig John (Capt. John Walker) of London, which was sealing in the South Shetland Islands in 1820-21 and 1821-22.
