Padpadak Island (bg|остров Пъдпъдък|ostrov Padpadak, pronounced as /bg/) is the mostly ice-free island extending 442 m in southwest–northeast direction and 390 m in southeast–northwest direction in the Dannebrog Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Its surface area is 8.35 ha.[1]
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a common quail bird ('padpadak' in Bulgarian), and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.[1]
