Yankee Harbor is a small
harbor entered between
Glacier Bluff and
Spit Point, indenting the southwest side of
Greenwich Island in the
South Shetland Islands. Yankee Harbor was known to both American sealers and the British as early as 1820, and this name is now established in international usage. Port Foster, the crater harbor of
Deception Island, has at times also been referred to as Yankee Harbor.
