Reluctant Island (-67.8333°N -72°W) is a small island off eastern Horseshoe Island. Surveyed by Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (FIDS) in 1955 - 57. So named because of the feature's apparent reluctance to be recognized as an island; it did not appear on maps of the British Graham Land Expedition (BGLE) 1934 - 37 and was mapped as a peninsula by FIDS in 1948 - 50.
