'''Gourdon Peninsula''' ({{coor dm|64|24|S|63|12|W|}}) is a snow-covered [[peninsula]] 6 nautical miles (11 km) long, forming the southeast side of [[Lapeyrere Bay]] on the northeast coast of [[Anvers Island]], in the [[Palmer Archipelago]]. The northeast coast of Anvers Island was roughly surveyed by the [[French Antarctic Expedition]] under Charcot in 1905 and the name "[[Pointe Gourdon]]," for [[Vice-Admiral Gourdon]] of the [[French Navy]], was given to a point between Lapeyrere and [[Fournier Bays]]. The [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1956 altered the name to Gourdon Peninsula and applied it to the peninsula described, which almost certainly is the feature Charcot had in mind when he gave the original name.

'''Grassholm''' ({{coor dm|54|3|S|37|56|W|}}) is an [[island]] 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) south of [[Frida Hole]], along the south coast and near the west end of [[South Georgia]]. The name [[Em Island]] was given for this feature, probably by DI personnel who surveyed this coast in 1926. The SGS, 1951-52, reported that this feature is known to whalers and sealers as "Grassholmen," and that Em Island is unknown locally. The indefinite form of the name has been approved.

'''Green Island''' ({{coor dm|54|53|S|36|6|W|}}) is a small, rounded, tussock-covered [[island]] which lies immediately southeast of [[Cape Disappointment]], the south tip of [[South Georgia]]. The name "[[Green Islands]]," derived from their covering of tussock grass, was given in 1775 by a British expedition under Cook to a group of three islands lying close off Cape Disappointment. The name "[[Grune Insel]]" or "[[Grun-Insel]]," meaning Green Island, was used for this island by [[Kohl-Larsen]] in 1930, presumably because of local usage. The SGS, 1951-52, reported that whalers and sealers, in practice, use separate names for the three islands, limiting the name Green Island to the northernmost one. [[Brode Island]] is the central island and [[First Rock]] is southernmost of the three. The name "Green Islands" given by Cook for the three islands is apparently not needed and has dropped from use.

'''Guile Island''' ({{coor dm|65|44|S|65|11|W|}}) is an [[island]] lying 1 nautical mile (1.9 km) southwest of [[Duchaylard Island]], in the [[Biscoe Islands]]. Charted by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill, 1934-37. So named by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1959 because, while there appears to be a number of landing places on this island, numerous underwater rocks make approach dangerous.

'''Gulbrandsen Lake''' ({{coor dm|54|12|S|36|44|W|}}) is a [[lake]] 0.5 nautical miles (0.9 km) long lying north of [[Neumayer Glacier]] in [[South Georgia]]. Charted and named "[[White City]]" by the Br expedition under Shackleton, 1921-22, but this name is considered unsuitable and has never been used locally. Gulbrandsen Lake was named by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1957 for [[Gunnar Gulbrandsen]], pattern-maker at the [[Compania Argentina]] de Pesca station at Grytviken, 1927-30, carpenter at Stromness, 1945-46, and variously carpenter, dockforeman, dockmaster, and junior officer at the [[South Georgia Whaling Co]]. station, [[Leith Harbor]], for several years beginning in 1946.

'''Gull Lake''' ({{coor dm|54|17|S|36|31|W|}}) is a [[lake]], 0.15 nautical miles (0.3 km) in diameter, lying close to the southwest shore of [[King Edward Cove]], 0.5 nautical miles (0.9 km) south of the abandoned whaling station at Grytviken, [[South Georgia]]. First roughly surveyed and named "Mowensee" or "[[Moven See]]" (Gull Lake) by [[A. Szielasko]], who visited South Georgia in 1906. The English form Gull Lake was used by [[Robert Cushman Murphy]] in 1947, in describing his visit to the lake in November 1912. This latter form, recommended by the [[United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee]] (UK-APC) in 1954, is approved.

'''The Gullet''' ({{coor dm|67|10|S|67|38|W|}}) is a narrow channel between the east extremity of [[Adelaide Island]] and the west coast of [[Graham Land]], separating Hansen and [[Day Islands]] and connecting the heads of [[Hanusse Bay]] and [[Laubeuf Fjord]]. This area was first explored in 1909 by the [[French Antarctic Expedition]] under Charcot who, though uncertain of the existence of the channel, sketched its probable position on the charts of the expedition. The channel was first visited and roughly surveyed in 1936 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill. It was resurveyed and given this descriptive name in 1948 by members of the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS).

'''Gunnel Channel''' ({{coor dm|67|6|S|67|33|W|}}) is a channel, 0.5 nautical miles (0.9 km) wide and 7 nautical miles (13 km) long, situated in the south part of [[Hanusse Bay]] and separating [[Hansen Island]] from the west coast of [[Graham Land]]. First observed from the air and roughly charted in 1936 by the [[British Graham Land Expedition]] (BGLE) under Rymill. Surveyed from the ground in 1948 by the [[Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey]] (FIDS) who gave this descriptive name. The channel gives a false impression of such narrowness that a boat could not navigate it without scraping her gunnels (gunwales) on either side.
