Eyrie Bay is a bay, 2.5 miles (4 km) wide at its mouth and extending 3 miles (5 km) inland, lying north of Jade Point, Trinity Peninsula, Antarctica. It was so named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after an eagle's eyrie because of the proximity to Eagle Island.

Famous quotes containing the word bay:
“The seagull’s wings shall dip and pivot him,
Shedding white rings of tumult, building high
Over the chained bay waters Liberty—
Then, with inviolate curve, forsake our eyes”
—Hart Crane (1899–1932)
