Station Nunatak (64°23′S 57°3′W) is an isolated ice-free nunatak near the north coast of Snow Hill Island in the James Ross Island group. It rises to 150 m and stands 4.5 nautical miles (8 km) southwest of the east end of the island. First surveyed in 1902 by the Swedish Antarctic Expedition under Nordenskjold, who so named it because of its proximity to the expedition's winter station.
