This coast is bordered by Thurston Island, Abbot Ice Shelf and some islands within the ice shelf. It was sighted by members of the US Antarctic Service (USAS) in flights from the ship from surveys and U.S. Navy air photos, 1960-66. Most of Eights Coast is not claimed by any nation, like Marie Byrd Land, the large region west of it. Only in the east, Eights Coast touches the sector claimed by Chile as part of its southermost province. Peter I Island, 450 km north of the coast, is claimed by Norway as a dependency.
