Zélée Rocks (62°57′S 57°15′W) is a group of rocks, some of which are above water and others near the surface, lying in Bransfield Strait 17 nautical miles (31 km) north of Prime Head, the north tip of Antarctic Peninsula. They were discovered by the French expedition of 1837–40, under Captain Jules Dumont d'Urville, and named by him after one of the expedition's ships, the corvette Zélée.
