Prince Ulaf Coast


Prince Olav Coast (Norwegian: Kronprins Olav Kyst) is that portion of the coast of Queen Maud Land between the east entrance point of Lutzow-Holm Bay, marked by the coastal angle at 40° E, and Shinnan Glacier at 44° 38' E. It was discovered by Capt. Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen in January 1930 on a flight from the Norvegia, and named for Crown Prince Olav of Norway, later King. Russian polar station Molodyezhnaya is located here at 67.66614S, 45.84483E.
To the west of it is the Prince Harald Coast.
