Fish Island

The Seal passed between huge icebergs to reach Flounder Island inlet in Fish Island Bay. They took the dingby across across to Mackerel Island to visit an Adelie penguin rookery. When they landed at Mackerel Island, two fur seals tried to get rid of them

They climbed up a huge ice cap on top of the island for what they described as " breathtaking views of Trout, Plaice, Salmon and Perch Islands in Fish Island Bay. The bay was littered with icebergs and sea ice.
