Not to be confused with Sandefjord Bay on the west side Coronation Island!

Sandefjord Bay was an ice bay at the head of Prydz Bay, lying on the eastern side of the Amery Ice Shelf. This bay no longer exists, engulfed by the ice of the Amery Ice Shelf. It was discovered in February 1935, by Captain Klarius Mikkelsen in the whaling ship Thorshavn and called Sandefjord Bukta after the town of Sandefjord, Norway.[1]
