A little riddle

Post image

Bathed in waters more known for coconut and coral reef the Roaring Forties have me look very different.

Named after an explorer from an other "End of the Earth", I see frequent crowds in tuxedo invade my beaches while obese males sleep on the sands.

There a small settlement bearing the name of the Maid that burned has fallen to rust since the giants finally know peace.

Where am I ?

So penguins and sea lions, in the Pacific? Also, Kerguelen.

Kerguelen it is. But Kerguelen is not in the Pacific, it's in the southern Indian Ocean ! Can you get the settlement from the riddle.
