Neumayer Channel -- (64°47'S 63°28'W) (-64.783333,
-63.466666)
Neumayer Channel is a channel with 26km long and about 2.4 km wide at its
narrowest point, separating Anvers Island from Wienche
Island and Doumer
Island , in the Palmer
Archipelago . The southwest entrance to this channel was seen by
Eduard Dallmann, leader of the German 1873-74 expedition, who named it Roosen Channel.
The Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache, sailed through the
channel and named it for Georg von Neumayer. The second name has been approved
because of more general usage. Neumayer Channel is known for its majestic
cliffs, an attraction for tourists who come to the region. It is said to be
like a maze with no visible exits because of its inverted S-shape. Its entrance
and exits both have sharp bends.
