Location of Graham Coast on the Antarctic Peninsula.


Strelcha Spur (Bulgarian: рид Стрелча, ‘Rid Strelcha’ 'rid 'strel-cha) is the rocky, partly ice-covered spur extending 5.3 km in south-southeast to north-northwest direction and 1.4 km wide, rising to 650 m in the west foothills of Bruce Plateau on Graham Coast in Graham Land, Antarctica. It has steep and partly ice-free west, north and east slopes, and surmounts Birley Glacier to the north and east, and a tributary to that glacier to the west.


The spur is named after the town of Strelcha in Southern Bulgaria.
