The Kramolin Cove (English; Bulgarian залив Крамолин saliw Kramolin ) is a 1.92 km wide and 700 m long bay on the southwest coast of Greenwich Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . It is located between Yovkov Point in the northwest and Kaspichan Point in the southeast. It was uncovered by the retreat of the Murgasch glacier which flows into it at the end of the 20th and the beginning of the 21st century .
Bulgarian scientists mapped it in 2009. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2010 after the town of Kramolin in northern Bulgaria .
