Koke Strand (69°13′S 39°39′E) is a beach, or strand, situated just southward of Mount Chōtō in the Fukuro Cove of the Langhovde Hills, in coastal Queen Maud Land, Antarctic . The feature is the site of a community of mosses measuring 15 by 30 metres (50 by 100 ft). The name Koke-daira (Japanese for "moss strand") was given by the Japanese Antarctic Research Expedition Headquarters in 1963 and follows Japanese research in this vicinity.
