Padda Island

Padda Island is an island lying near the west side of the entrance to Havsbotn in Lutzow-Holm Bay. Mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and named Padda (the toad) because of its shape. The headland Austpynten forms the entire northeastern extremity of the island.
