Rolf Rock rises to 13 feet above sea-level in Hound Bay, about two miles west-south-west of Cape Vakop, on the north-west coast of South Georgia.

The rock was charted by the South Georgia Survey in 1951-52, and named after SS Rolf, one of the ships which participated in establishing the first permanent whaling station at Grytviken in 1904.
