Humic Lake is a small and relatively shallow lake lying in a rock basin amongst densely vegetated knolls, south-east of Burnet Cove, in Maidalen, a valley in the north of South Georgia.
The lake is named in reference to the dark-stained water caused by humic acid derived from the leachates of decaying peat on the adjacent slopes.
