Buell Peninsula is an ice-covered peninsula terminating in Cape Williams, located between the lower ends of Lillie Glacier, George Glacier and Zykov Glacier, at the northwest end of the Anare Mountains in Antarctica. The peninsula is long and at its greatest width.
The Buell Peninsula was photographed from United States Navy aircraft during Operation Highjump, 1946–47, and again in 1960–62. It was mapped by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) in 1962–63, and named by the United States Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names (US-ACAN) for Lieutenant (later Lieutenant Commander) Kenneth R. Buell, a U.S. Navy navigator on aircraft with Squadron VX-6 in Antarctica in 1965–66 and 1966–67.
The Buell Peninsula extends northward into the Pacific Ocean from the Anare Mountains between Zykov Glacier to the east, George Glacier to the southwest and the Lillie Glacier Tongue to the west.Features include Cape Williams in the north, and Saddle Peak and Mount Kostka on the neck of the peninsula to the south.
