Part 15 Antarctic specially protected area No. 115
Lagotellerie Island, Marguerite Bay, Antarctic Peninsula.
Latitude 67 53 20 S, longitude 67 25 30 W.
Lagotellerie Island (latitude 67° 53 20 S, longitude 67° 25 30 W; area 1.58 km2), is situated in Marguerite Bay, Fallières Coast, Graham Land, 46 km south-east of Rothera Point on Adelaide Island, 11 km south of Porquois Pas Island and 3.25 km west of the south end of Horseshoe Island. Lagotellerie Island is 2 km by 1.3 km, oriented generally in an east-west direction.
The designated Area comprises the entire main island, and offshore islets within 200 m of the coast, above the low tide water level, which is defined as the boundary of the Area. Boundary markers have not been installed because the coast itself is a clearly defined and visually obvious boundary.
