Davis Anchorage is an anchorage in Antarctica about 1nmi in extent with general depths of 10fathom13fathom, lying off Breidnes Peninsula, Vestfold Hills. It is bounded on the west by the Krat Rocks and the Hobby Rocks, and on the east by the rocks and shoal water extending 0.5nmi offshore from Davis Station. The anchorage has been used by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions ships to Davis Station, for which it is named, since 1957.
