Bolle Bay

Bolle Bay (54°27′S 3°21′E) is a cove indenting the western shore of Bouvetøya, entered on the southern side of Norvegia Point. Roughly charted in 1898 by the German expedition under Carl Chun, it was re-charted and named in December 1927 by a Norwegian expedition under Captain Harald Horntvedt.[1][2]
