As of the year 2000, the International Hydrographic Organisation decided that the waters surrounding Antarctica would be known officially as the Southern Ocean. The Southern Ocean extends from the coast of Antarctica to the 60 degree South line of Latitude. What is now the Southern Ocean was previously the southern most portions of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans. The Southern Ocean incorporates the Amundsen Sea, Bellingshausen Sea, part of the Drake Passage, Ross Sea, a small part of the Scotia Sea, Weddell Sea, and other tributary water bodies.
You can find the Weddell Sea east of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The deep bay bounded by the Antarctic Peninsula and Coats Land is called Marguerite Bay. It is located along the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula and is known for its significant ice shelves and glaciers.

No, not at all. Antarctica rests smack in the middle of the Antarctic Sea, also called the Southern Sea.
The Antarctic is a landmass: the Arctic is sea ice.
"When taking a trip on an Antarctic Cruise these are some of the popular travel destinations: the Antarctic Peninsula, the Weddell Sea, and the Ross Sea region."

The Antarctic, or the continent of Antarctica, is located in the Southern Ocean.
The Ocean that separate's South America from Antarctica is the Southern Ocean. The Sea that separates the tip of South America from the Antarctic peninsula is called the Scotia Sea. The Drake Passage seperates South America and the Antarctic, sitting, as it does between Tierra Del Fuego and the Antarctic Shetland Islands.
The Arctic Ocean is smaller.
One of the plants in the Antarctic sea is seaweed.
