  • Pyramid Island (englisch für Pyramideninsel, spanisch Islote Pirámide) ist eine markante und bis zu 205 m hohe Felseninsel im Archipel der Südlichen Shetlandinseln. Sie liegt 3 km nordnordöstlich des Williams Point vor der Nordküste der Livingston-Insel. Wahrscheinlich war sie bereits den ersten Robbenfängern bekannt, die 1821 in diesen Gewässern operierten. Wissenschaftler der britischen Discovery Investigations nahmen 1935 die Kartierung und die deskriptive Benennung vor. (de)

Both the island and the rock were charted and descriptively named by Discovery Investigations personnel in 1935. (en)
