The Islotes Señoret ( Spanish ) are a group of small islands in the Palmer Archipelago west of the Antarctic Peninsula . They are located in front of the tip of the peninsula in the northwest of the Anvers Island , which separates the Hamburg harbor in the southwest from the Perrier Bay in the northeast.
They were first recorded on Chilean maps in 1947 under the names Islotes Almirante Señoret and Islotes Almte . Chilean scientists transferred this name to its present form in 1963. It is named after the Chilean whaling ship Almirante Señoret , which operated in Antarctic waters between 1911 and 1914.
