Stevenson Cove (66°15′S 110°37′E) is a cove on the north side of Clark Peninsula, about 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) east-northeast of Wilkes Station. This region was photographed from the air by U.S. Navy Operation Highjump (1946–47), ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions) (1956) and the Soviet expedition (1956). The cove was included in a 1957 ground survey by C.R. Eklund. He named it for Andrew Stevenson, economic advisor to the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Interstate and Foreign Commerce, author of a report for the Committee on the IGY in the Arctic and Antarctic.
