Kramolin Cove
Kramolin Cove (Bulgarian: залив Крамолин, romanized: zaliv Kramolin, IPA: [ˈzalif krɐmoˈlin]) is the 1.92 km wide cove indenting for 900 m the southwest coast of Greenwich Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Entered between Yovkov Point and Kaspichan Point. Shape enhanced as a result of Murgash Glacier’s retreat in the late 20th and early 21st century.
