The feature is bounded on the west by Amery Ice Shelf, on the east by Publications Ice Shelf, and on the south by the mainland. It was discovered in February 1935 by Captain Klarius Mikkelsen on the Norwegian whaling ship Thorshavn, sent out by Lars Christensen. They gave it the name Sandefjordbukta after the town of Sandefjord, Norway, center of the Norwegian whaling industry.[1] The term "ice bay" is applied to this feature because of its formation in ice, and to reduce confusion with other bays of this name, particularly Sandefjord Bay on Coronation Island.
