Zeta Island is a small island amongst the cluster known as the Melchior Islands, in Dallmann Bay between Anvers Island and Brabant Island amongst the larger Palmer Archipelago west of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory.
Zeta lies in the East Melchior Islands chain. It was created by changes in ice cover opening a channel between Omega Island and what is not recognised as Zeta Island. The island is named in continuation of the naming theme of letters of the Greek alphabet established in the Melchior Islands. It was named in 2016.
