The '''Double Islands''' are two small rocky islands lying close east of the tip of [Zélée Glacier Tongue](/source/Z%C3%A9l%C3%A9e_Glacier_Tongue) and {{convert|0.4|nmi|km|1|disp=flip}} north-northwest of the [Triple Islands](/source/Triple_Islands_(Antarctica)). They were photographed from the air by [U.S. Navy Operation Highjump](/source/U.S._Navy_Operation_Highjump), 1946–47, and were charted and named by the [French Antarctic Expedition](/source/French_Antarctic_Expedition), 1949–51.<ref name=gnis/>
