The Antarctic Peninsula is part of the larger peninsula of [[West Antarctica]], protruding {{convert|1300|km|mi|abbr=in}} from a line between [[Cape Adams]] ([[Weddell Sea]]) and a point on the mainland south of the [[Eklund Islands]]. Beneath the ice sheet that covers it, the Antarctic Peninsula consists of a string of bedrock islands; these are separated by deep channels whose bottoms lie at depths considerably below current sea level. They are joined by a grounded ice sheet.
