Hoseason Island is an island six nautical miles long and three nautical miles wide, lying 20 nauticla miles west of Trinity Island in the Palmer Archipelago, in the British Antarctic Territory.
The island's name, which has appeared on charts for over 100 years, commemorates James Hoseason, first mate on the Sprightly, an Enderby Brothers sealing ship which operated in these waters in 1824–25.[1]
