Mount Michael is an active volcanic mountain of 2,641 feet surmounting Saunders Island in the South Sandwich Islands, part of the British overseas territory of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.

Saunders Island was discovered by a British expedition under Cook in 1775, but the mountain is believed to have been first charted in 1820 by a Russian expedition under Bellingshausen. It was recharted in 1930 by Discovery Investigations personnel under the command of Commander W M Carey, Royal Navy, Captain of the Discovery II at the time of the survey.
