Data

Inner Lee Island is a small island in the east of Bay of Isles, on the north coast of South Georgia. It lies less than a mile north-northeast of Luck Point.

This island was charted in 1912–13 by Robert Cushman Murphy, an American naturalist abroad the brig Daisy, who included it as one of two islands which called the "Lee Islands". These islands were recharted in 1929–30 by Discovery Investigations personnel, who renamed this southwestern of the two, Inner Lee Island. The north-eastern island is now known as Outer Lee Island.
