Phoque Island
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Phoque Island (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found.) is a rocky island 0.1 nautical miles (0.2 km) long, the southernmost island in a small group 0.1 nautical miles (0.2 km) north of Cape Margerie. Charted in 1951 by the French Antarctic Expedition and so named by them because of numerous seals (mammals) near the island, "phoque" being French for seal.
