Renard Island is an island off the Danco Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory.
The island is just over one mile long and almost a mile wide, with Cape Renard at its northern end. It is separated from False Cape Renard by a channel that appeared following the loss of ice prior to 2001. The island was named by the UK Antarctic Place-names Committee in 2008 in association with Cape Renard.
