The Straggle Islands form the eastern side of Harrison Passage, off the Graham Coast in the British Antarctic Territory. Their northernmost island is Dog Island, and the Straggle Islands extend south from here.

The islands were photographed from the air by the Falkland Islands and Dependencies Aerial Survey Expedition and surveyed from the ground by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from "Prospect Point", 1956-57. They were named 'Straggle Islands' following this survey from the scattered arrangement of the group.
