The Ward Islands are the south-eastern group of the Amiot Islands, which lies off the south-west coast of Adelaide Island, off the Loubet Coast of Graham Land in the British Antarctic Territory.

These islands were charted by a Royal Navy Hydrographic Survey Unit from 'John Biscoe' in 1963 and named after Herbert George Victor Ward (b.1908), Chief Engineer in John Biscoe, 1948-62.
