Briand Fjord
Briand Fjord (65°1′S 63°1′W / 65.017°S 63.017°W) is a bay nearly 3 nautical miles (6 km) long in the northeast part of Flandres Bay, along the west coast of Graham Land. It was charted by the French Antarctic Expedition, 1903–05, and named by Jean-Baptiste Charcot for Aristide Briand, a French statesman who was Minister of Public Instruction in 1906.[1]
Bayet Peak overlooks the south shore of the fjord.[2]
