Shut Island (bg|остров Шут|ostrov Shut, pronounced as /bg/) is the partly ice-free island extending 573 m in west–east direction and 520 m in south–north direction in the Dannebrog Islands group of Wilhelm Archipelago in the Antarctic Peninsula region. Its surface area is 14 ha.[1]
The feature is so named because of its shape supposedly resembling a jester hat ('shut' being the Bulgarian for 'jester'), and in association with other descriptive names of islands in the area.[1]
Shut Island is located at -65.05°N -64.1667°W. It abuts Padpadak Island on the south, and is situated 815m south-southwest of Hoatsin Island, 3.92 km west of Revolver Island and 1.9 km northeast of Skoba Island.
