Access to the interior is through the 200 metre-wide (660 feet) entrance known as Neptune’s Bellows. There is a rock in the middle just under the water and the area to one side is foul. Therefore the ship will have merely 100 metres (330 feet) with which to navigate. Once safely through the Bellows, Whalers Bay will begin to appear off the starboard side of the ship.

Whalers Bay was home to factory whaling ships as early as 1905 and a shore station named Hektor from 1912-1931 as well as British Base B built in 1941. Both the base and station were finally destroyed by a mudslide during the 1967-69 eruption along with a Chilean base farther down Port Foster in Pendulum Cove. Today there are two stations in operation, Spain’s Gabriel de Castilla and Argentina’s Decepción.

Although it was first sighted by Londoner Antoine de la Roche in 1675, Captain James Cook became the first to land on and survey the island in 1775. Upon his return to Britain, Cook’s description of large numbers of seals in the Southern Ocean precipitated the plundering of the area. The whalers followed the sealers and the first shore station was up and running by 1904. The last of the eventual six shore stations closed in 1965. During this period over 175,000 whales were ‘processed’ at South Georgia, including 41,515 blue whales. There is an estimated 4% of the original whale population left in the Southern Ocean.
