Range: Graham Land
Summit: 2,230 feet; -64.7728j -60.7739

Sentinel Nunatak is a high, black, pyramid-shaped nunatak which rises to 2,230 feet, on the south side of Drygalski Glacier, near the glacier's mouth, on the Nordenskjöld Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory.

This nunatak was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from "Hope Bay" in November 1947, along with Tillberg Peak. Sentinel is so named because of its commanding position at the mouth of the glacier.
