The Charybdis Icefalls ({{Coord|70|51|S|161|10|E|source:GNIS|display=inline,title}}) are a large group of crevassed icefalls in the lower portion of Harlin Glacier, where it descends notably to join the Rennick Glacier at Victoria Land in Antarctica. The feature is nourished in part by the Lovejoy Glacier which flows eastward parallel to the Harlin Glacier's north side and coalesces with it before reaching the icefalls. It was first mapped by the United States Geological Survey (1962–63) and the New Zealand Geological Survey Antarctic Expedition (NZGSAE) (1963–64), and named by the latter after Charybdis, the fearsome whirlpool monster of Greek mythology. The icefalls lies situated on the Pennell Coast, a portion of Antarctica lying between Cape Williams and Cape Adare.
