Edwards Peninsula is an ice-covered peninsula about 20 nautical miles (40 km) long, between Murphy Inlet and Koether Inlet on the north side of Thurston Island. It was delineated from aerial photographs made by U.S. Navy Operation HIGHJUMP in December 1946 and by U.S. Navy Squadron VX-6 in January 1960, and was named by the Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names for Lieutenant , the navigator of the USS Burton Island on the U.S. Navy Bellingshausen Sea Expedition to this area in February 1960. Mount Bubier sits about 4 nautical miles (7.4 km; 4.6 mi) south of the northern tip of the peninsula. Tribby Peak sits about 1.5 nautical miles (2.8 km; 1.7 mi) west of Mount Bubier.

| dbo:abstract | Die Edwards-Halbinsel ist eine 32 km lange und vereiste Halbinsel an der Nordküste der Thurston-Insel vor der Küste des westantarktischen Ellsworthlands. Sie liegt zwischen dem Murphy Inlet und dem Koether Inlet. Ihre Position wurde anhand von Luftaufnahmen der United States Navy vom Dezember 1946 während der Operation Highjump (1946–1947) und solcher der Navy-Flugstaffel VX-6 vom Januar 1960 bestimmt. Das Advisory Committee on Antarctic Names benannte sie nach Leutnant Donald L. Edwards, Navigator auf dem Eisbrecher während der Forschungsfahrt der US Navy im Februar 1960 in die Bellingshausen-See.
