Egg Island (Antarctica)
# Egg Island (Antarctica)

Egg Island is a circular island 2.8 kilometres (1.5 nmi) in diameter and 310 m high, lying 1.9 kilometres (1 nmi) west of Tail Island in the northeast part of Prince Gustav Channel. Probably first seen by a party under J. Gunnar Andersson of the Swedish Antarctic Expedition, 1901–04. Egg Island was charted in 1945 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS), who so named it because of its relative position to Tail, Eagle and Beak Islands.
