Kramolin Cove (Bulgarian: залив Крамолин, ‘Zaliv Kramolin’ \'za-liv kra-mo-'lin\) is the 1.92 km wide cove indenting for 900 m the southwest coast of Greenwich Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Entered between Yovkov Point and Kaspichan Point. Shape enhanced as a result of Murgash Glacier’s retreat in the late 20th and early 21st century.
The cove is named after the settlement of Kramolin in northern Bulgaria.
