Van Hulssen Islands is a group of about ten small islands, of which Van Hulssen Island is the largest, lying 1.5disp=flipNaNdisp=flip north of Pila Island in Holme Bay. The islands were mapped by Norwegian cartographers from air photos taken by the Lars Christensen Expedition, 1936–37, and included as part of a group called "Ytterskjera." They were remapped by ANARE (Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions), 1954–62, and named after the largest island in the group.
