2  Description
  Cape Denison (67°00′35″S, 142°40′6″E) is located on the coast of Commonwealth Bay, a 60 km wide stretch of coast in George V Land some 3 000 km south of Hobart, Australia. The cape itself is a rugged, 1.5 km wide tongue of ice, snow, rock and moraine projecting into Commonwealth Bay from the steeply rising wall of the ice cap of continental Antarctica. On the western side of the cape is Boat Harbour, a 330 m long indentation in the coast.
The boundary of the Area is as follows:
 (a) starting at Land's End (67°00′47″S, 142°39′28″E) in the west, it extends along the coastline to the northern tip of the western shore of Boat Harbour (67°00′21″S, 142°39′28″E);
 (b) then across the mouth of Boat Harbour (in a straight north‑easterly diagonal) to the eastern shore of Boat Harbour (67°00′21″S, 142°39′27″E), southwest of Penguin Knob;
 (c) then southeast along the coastline down to John O'Groats (67°00′47″S, 142°41′27″E);
 (d) then in a straight line back to Land's End along the 67°00′47″S line of latitude.
With the exception of the boundary across the mouth of Boat Harbour, the northern coastal boundary extends to that land above the lowest tide.
The shoreline and the ice cliffs at both ends of the Cape (Land's End and John O'Groats) form a clearly defined boundary. As such, no boundary markers have been installed.
