The Outcast Islands are two small islands, nearly {{convert|0.5|nmi|km|1|disp=flip|abbr=on}} apart, and a number of surrounding rocks lying {{convert|2|nmi|km|disp=flip|abbr=on}} southwest of Bonaparte Point, off the southwest coast of Anvers Island in the Palmer Archipelago of Antarctica. The Outcast Islands were named by the United Kingdom Antarctic Place-names Committee (UK-APC) following a survey in 1955 by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS). The name arose because of their isolated position some distance from the other islands in the vicinity of Arthur Harbor.
