Pear Island

Pear Island (64°31′S 62°54′W﻿ / ﻿64.517°S 62.900°W﻿ / -64.517; -62.900) is a small island lying immediately southwest of False Island, off the northeast coast of Anvers Island in the Palmer Archipelago. The existence of the island is noted on a British hydrographic chart of 1929; the name is presumably descriptive of shape and appears on a British hydrographic chart of 1952.[1]
