Flatvaer Islands

The Flatvaer Islands (Norwegian: Flatvær), also known as the Ongul Islands are a group of small islands, of which Ongul Island is the largest, lying at the east side of the entrance of Lützow-Holm Bay, 4 km from the coastline of Antarctica. They were mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Flatvær (flat islands).
