The South Sandwich Islands are sub-Antarctic islands that are untouched and very remote. These islands are governed together as a British overseas dependency and contain 11 islands that form the "Scotia Arc" along the 240-mile chain. Recognized as an Important Bird Area, the islands are mostly rugged and mountainous with snow-topped peaks.
