text:
White Island is a 24-kilometre-long (13 nmi) and 9-kilometre-wide (5 nmi) ice-covered island in Enderby Land, Antarctica. 15-kilometre-wide (8 nmi) Styles Strait separates it from Sakellari Peninsula. Discovered and called Hvitøya by Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen in January 1930, its existence was considered doubtful for a number of years but was confirmed by the Soviet expedition in the Lena in March 1957, and by ANARE led by D.F. Styles in the Thala Dan in February 1960.
