Comments

Enderby Land (67°30′S, 53°0′E) is a land mass of Antarctica, extending from Shinnan Glacier to William Scoresby Bay. It was discovered in February 1831 by John Biscoe in the Tula, and named after the Enderby Brothers of London, owners of the Tula, who encouraged their captains to combine exploration with sealing.
