Bridger Bay

Bridger Bay extends between Penguin Point and Tickell Head on the coast of Coronation Island amongst the South Orkney Islands in the British Antarctic Territory.

The bay was charted by Discovery Investigations in 1933; named after John Frederick Douglas Bridger (1930-1992), the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey surveyor at Signy in 1955-58, who completed the survey of Coronation Island and Signy Island.
