Delaite Island (64°33′S 62°12′W) is an island 1 nautical mile (2 km) long, lying 3 nautical miles (6 km) northeast of Emma Island in the north-central portion of Wilhelmina Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land. It was discovered by the Belgian Antarctic Expedition, 1897–99, under Gerlache, and named by him for J. Delaite, a supporter of the expedition.
