The Urovene Cove (English; Bulgarian залив Уровене saliw Urowene , in the United Kingdom Duyvis Cove ) is a 2.65 km wide and 2.75 km long bay in the southwest of the Felipe Solo Peninsula on the Graham coast of Graham Land in the Antarctic Peninsula . As a side bay of Barilari Bay , it is located southeast of Laskar Point and northwest of Duyvis Point .
British scientists mapped it in 1971. The Bulgarian Commission for Antarctic Geographical Names named it in 2013 after the town of Urowene in northwestern Bulgaria . The namesake of the British name, which is based on that of the neighboring headland, is the Dutch documentary Frits Donker Duyvis (1894–1961), secretary of the International Federation for Information and Documentation, founded in 1895 and dissolved in 2002 .
