        Whalers Bay, Deception Island, South Shetland Islands. The site comprises all pre‑1970 remains on the shore of Whalers Bay, including those from the early whaling period (1906–12) initiated by Captain Adolfus Andresen of the Sociedad Ballenera de Magallanes, Chile; the remains of the Norwegian Hektor Whaling Station established in 1912 and all artefacts associated with its operation until 1931; the site of a cemetery with 35 burials and a memorial to ten men lost at sea; and the remains from the period of British scientific and mapping activity (1944–69). The site also acknowledges and commemorates the historic value of other events that occurred there, from which nothing remains.
