Couzens Bay (80°35′S 160°30′E) is an ice-filled bay about 10 nautical miles (20 km) long, entered between Senia Point and Cape Goldschmidt on the western side of the Ross Ice Shelf. It was named by the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (1960–61) for Lieutenant Thomas Couzens, Royal New Zealand Air Force, who lost his life in a crevasse accident near Cape Selborne on November 19, 1959.
