Hazy Islands Wilderness is a 32-acre (13 ha) wilderness area in the U.S. state of Alaska. It was first established as a National Wildlife Refuge in 1912, and officially designated as Wilderness in 1970 by the United States Congress. The islands are part of the Gulf of Alaska unit of the Alaska Maritime National Wildlife Refuge, and are located west of Coronation Island in the Alaska Panhandle area. Hazy Islands Wilderness comprises five small islands and is home to 10 species of birds, including Brandt's cormorant (Phalacrocorax auritus).
