The Maglizh Rocks (English; Bulgarian Мъглижки скали Maglischki skali ) are a group of cliffs off the northwest coast of Smith Island in the archipelago of the South Shetland Islands . The two largest and neighboring ones extend in an east-west orientation over a length of 450 m, a width of 100 m and are 250 m northwest of Lista Point . The third largest is 400 m northwest of the other two.
Bulgarian scientists mapped it in 2008. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in the same year after the town of Maglisch in southern Bulgaria .
