}}Edgell Island is one of Baffin Island's small offshore islands, located in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago in the territory of Nunavut. It lies in Davis Strait, near the entrance into Frobisher Bay. Graves Strait, about {{convert|16|mi|abbr=on}} long and {{convert|7|mi|abbr=on}} wide, separates it from Resolution Island. Edgell Island has an area of {{convert|287|km2|abbr=on}} and a perimeter of {{convert|148|km|abbr=on}}.[1] Black Bluff is a headland at the north end and is the only named feature on the island.[2]
