Has anyone sailed around these islands ?
Where is it ?

Funny, I was just looking at them in Celestia the other day...

They're near South Georgia, next to the Antarctic... and since my atlas doesn't provide a name, I think they might be part of South Georgia. Am I right?

They're called the South Sandwich Islands, and they're part of South Georgia to the extent that both belong to a British dependency imaginatively named "South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands".
From north to south: Zavodovski I, Leskov I (offset from the arc), Visokoi I, Candlemas I, Saunders I, Montagu I, Bristol I, Southern Thule.

Ok that was too easy!
Next time I'll post an impossible one or maybe I give up!
