Earthquakes: Yes
Hurricanes: No

The Antarctic Peninsula is near several plate boundaries, making it prone to earthquakes. Additionally, there are volcanoes such as Mount Erebus, which can also produce earthquakes.

Hurricanes are a tropical phenomenon that can only form over warm ocean water. They lose hurricane status if they enter a cold environment.
