It referred to the sea area off the coast of Galicia used in ship logs, crucial information for sailors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to confusion with the town of Finisterre, the Meteorological Institute of the United Kingdom adjusted the name. The new name for the sea area Finisterre is: Fitzroy. The sea area is renamed after the first professional weatherman in the United Kingdom and founder of the Meteorological Institute in 1853. His name is now mentioned four times a day in the ship logs on the BBC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"180\" data-attachment-id=\"684\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/2024\/04\/02\/once-upon-a-time-there-were-3-places-named-finisterre\/finisterre-zeegebied\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/files\/2024\/04\/finisterre-zeegebied.jpg?fit=300%2C180&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"300,180\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"finisterre-zeegebied\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/files\/2024\/04\/finisterre-zeegebied.jpg?fit=300%2C180&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/files\/2024\/04\/finisterre-zeegebied.jpg?fit=300%2C180&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/files\/2024\/04\/finisterre-zeegebied.jpg?resize=300%2C180&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-684\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/news.bbc.co.uk\/2\/hi\/uk_news\/1798629.stm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">BBC<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Great, now we know for sure that the beautiful town of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.galiciatips.com\/en\/destinations\/finisterre-fisterra\/\">Finisterre<\/a> in Galicia is what&#8217;s meant when that name is mentioned!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quite confusing, isn&#8217;t it?
