Macfie Sound (67°22′S 59°43′E) is a passage 1 nautical mile (2 km) wide at its narrowest point, extending in an east–west direction between Islay and Bertha Island in the William Scoresby Archipelago, Antarctica. It was discovered in February 1936 by Discovery Investigations personnel on the William Scoresby, and named by them for Lieutenant A.F. Macfie, Royal Naval Reserve, who prepared the charts of the expedition.
