Prince Olav Harbour
From Wikishire
Prince Olav Harbour is a little bay and a whaling station, long abandoned, in the north of South Georgia. The bay lies in the shelter of Cape Crewe and Black Head, to the north of Possession Bay, where Captain Cook landed and took possession of the island.
The station was established here in 1911 by he Southern Whaling and Sealing Company, a company based in South Africa and South Shields. This was the gold rush period of South Georgia Whaling, but the opening of Prince Olav Harbour was its last hurrah, and the station closed permanently in 1931.
