Renard Island is an island, approximately 2.0 kilometres (1.1 nmi) long and 1.57 kilometres (0.85 nmi) wide, with Cape Renard at its northern end and separated from False Cape Renard by a channel that appeared following the loss of ice prior to 2001. It was named by the UK Antarctic Place-names Committee in 2008 in association with Cape Renard.
