南桑威奇群岛位于拉特岛之间。南纬 56° 18' 和南纬 59° 28' 以及长线之间。西经 26° 14′ 和西经 28° 11′。有 11 个岛屿，其中 10 个岛屿形成一条向北和向南延伸的弯曲链，第 11 个岛屿列斯科夫岛位于该群岛的西边，靠近北端。该群是南极地区唯一的典型火山岛弧，构成了斯科舍岛弧的最东段；东面以相关的南桑威奇海沟深部为界。
The South Sandwich Islands lie between lats. 56° 18′ S. and 59° 28′ S., and between longs. 26° 14′ W., and 28° 11′ W. There are eleven islands, of which ten form a curved chain stretching north and south while the eleventh, Leskov Island, lies to the west of the group near its northern end. The group is the only typical volcanic island arc in the Antarctic region and forms the easternmost section of the Scotia Arc; to the east it is bounded by the associated deep South Sandwich Trench.
