'''Aim Rocks''' is a group of rocks lying east of [Cape Timblón](/source/Cape_Timbl%C3%B3n) in the middle of [Morton Strait](/source/Morton_Strait) in the [South Shetland Islands](/source/South_Shetland_Islands), [Antarctica](/source/Antarctica). The name, given by the [United Kingdom Antarctic Place-Names Committee](/source/United_Kingdom_Antarctic_Place-Names_Committee) in 1961, is descriptive; these rocks in line are a guide for safe passage through the southern entrance of Morton Strait.
