Wave Peak is a mountain with a summit of 3,150 feet above sea level on Coronation Island amongst the South Orkney Islands in the British Antarctic Territory. It stands at head of the Laws Glacier, above Marshall Bay.
The mountain was surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey from Signy in 1948-49, and so named from its resemblance to a breaking wave. It was further surveyed by the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey, 1956-58.
