Zagore Beach (Zagorski Bryag \za-'gor-ski 'bryag\) faces False Bay on Livingston Island, Antarctica and extends for 4 km on the Rozhen Peninsula between Charity Glacier and the Ruen Icefall. The beach is surmounted by Canetti Peak (400 m) and MacKay Peak (approx 700 m). Surface area 220 hectares (540 acres).
The beach is named after the historic region of Zagore situated south of the Balkan Mountains in Bulgaria.
Famous quotes containing the word beach:
“If Los Angeles has been called “the capital of crackpots” and “the metropolis of isms,” the native Angeleno can not fairly attribute all of the city’s idiosyncrasies to the newcomer—at least not so long as he consults the crystal ball for guidance in his business dealings and his wife goes shopping downtown in beach pajamas.”
