The Goodwin Sands, located off the coast of Kent, England, are named after the nearby Goodwin Sands Lighthouse, which was established to warn sailors of the treacherous sandbanks. The name "Goodwin" is believed to be derived from a 13th-century shipwreck Survivor named Goodwin, who settled in the area. Over time, the sands became notorious for their hazardous conditions, leading to their recognition and naming in maritime history.
