Moureaux Islands are two islands and off-lying rocks lying 4.6 kilometres (2.5 nmi) west-northwest of Pelletan Point in Flandres Bay, off the west coast of Graham Land. They were first charted and named by members of the Belgian Antarctic Expedition under Gerlache, who made a landing on one of the islands in February 1898.
