Île de la Passe is a small island of Peros Banhos, a coral ring atoll in the British Indian Ocean Territory. The island is close to the north-western corner of the atoll, emerging from the water beside a narrow sea passage into the lagoon, hence its name. It stands beside Moresby Island on its east side, on the same raised reef platform.
